We recommend regular vaccinations, heartworm prevention, flea control, and deworming for your pet.  While those are components of great pet care, the foundation is an annual, comprehensive wellness exam.  While you know your pet best, it's important to remember that dogs and cats can't communicate clearly, and often fail to show symptoms of pain or illness, necessitating a periodic examination by your pet's veterinarian.
