Southgate Veterinary Hospital

We offer annual wellness exams as the foundation of small animal care. These visits allow us to monitor your pet’s overall health, detect changes early and provide recommendations tailored to their needs.

We offer first puppy and kitten visits designed to give young pets a healthy start through a combination of preventive care and education for owners. These include complete physical exams, deworming, initial vaccines, parasite screening, and heartworm/flea/tick prevention.

We offer wellness exams every six months for senior pets (7 years and older) to address age-related conditions more proactively. We may recommend bloodwork, urinalysis, or diagnostic imaging to support early detection of disease and help maintain quality of life.
