Pawtown Veterinary Care

We provide thorough Comprehensive Physical Exams for dogs and cats, covering every major body system from nose to tail. Our detailed evaluations include assessments of eyes, ears, mouth, cardiovascular health, respiratory function, abdominal organs, musculoskeletal system, skin/coat condition, and neurological responses. These exams serve as the foundation of preventive care, helping us detect early signs of disease (like dental issues or heart conditions) before symptoms become obvious. We tailor each exam to your pet’s life stage—whether they’re a puppy, adult, senior, or adopted pet—and use these visits to establish baseline health parameters for future comparisons.

We offer specialized Puppy & Kitten Wellness Packages designed to support healthy growth and development. These packages include comprehensive physical exams, core vaccinations (Rabies, Distemper, Parvo), lifestyle vaccinations as needed, parasite prevention (flea/tick/heartworm), and nutritional counseling tailored for young pets.

Our Senior Pet Wellness Care focuses on proactive monitoring and management of age-related conditions.
