Comprehensive Pet Wellness Exams
A full nose-to-tail exam helps us assess your pet’s health, identify early warning signs, and recommend appropriate follow-up care.

Why Wellness Services Matter
Routine pet wellness exams and consistent preventative care are essential for catching issues early — before they become painful or costly. Wellness visits also allow us to track subtle changes in your pet’s weight, behaviour, or appetite that might signal underlying problems.
Studies show that pets who receive consistent veterinary wellness care live longer, healthier lives. At Elbow River Vet, we treat each wellness visit as an opportunity to build trust, answer your questions, and support your role as your pet’s best advocate.
