Surely you’ve heard the expression, “An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure”. Veterinary care isn’t just for when your pet is sick. In fact, routine care is the best way to extend your pet’s life and keep him happy and healthy. Regular wellness exams and vaccines are the most effective means of preventing illness.

When we examine your pet on a regular basis, we manage their current health as well as monitor the status of their health over time. With regular checkups, any changes or potential health concerns can be quickly identified and addressed immediately – before they have a chance to develop into a more serious problem. By staying on top of your pet’s health, we can extend and improve the quality of their life exponentially.

Wellness visits provide all of us at Animal Medical Center with the opportunity to get to know you and your animal friend on a more personal level. As your pet’s caregiver, you are also an important part of his or her health care team. We believe in establishing a partnership with you and so we can work together to improve the quality of your pet’s life and health. Therefore, we welcome any questions or concerns that you may have.

The wellness services at Animal Medical Center of Cumming include everything from vaccines, parasite prevention, nutrition and weight management, behavioral advice, and anything else our doctors deems important for the health of your pet.

Vaccines help prepare the body’s immune system to fight the invasion of disease-causing organisms. Vaccines help prevent many life-threatening illnesses that affect pets. Vaccinating your pet has long been considered one of the easiest ways to help him live a long, healthy life. Since a wide variety of vaccines are available, it may be confusing or overwhelming for pet owners to determine which are crucial. At Animal Medical Center of Cumming, we take the necessary time to explain each vaccine and develop an individualized vaccine protocol to suite your pet’s needs.
