Regular wellness and preventive care visits are essential to give your pets the best chance at a long, healthy life.
Preventive care helps us create a complete picture of your pet's health and identify potential issues before they become serious. Regular wellness checkups are essential for all pets—from energetic puppies and inquisitive kittens to cherished senior companions—regardless of how healthy they may seem. By spotting health problems early, we can address them promptly to ensure your pet stays healthy and happy.

Wellness Exams for Early Detection
Routine wellness exams are the foundation of your pet’s long-term health. These visits provide a clear picture of your pet's current health status and allow us to spot potential health problems before they become more serious.
Fear Free Methods
Our approach incorporates Fear Free™ practices to minimize fear, anxiety, and stress during veterinary visits. Understanding animal behavior and using techniques that promote safety and comfort, we create a more relaxed experience for your pet.
Comprehensive Blood Work
We perform a complete blood count, chemistry panel, and urinalysis to provide an in-depth understanding of your pet’s overall health. These tests help us detect a wide range of conditions, such as:
- Infections
- Anemia
- Kidney disorders
- Liver function issues
- Other abnormalities
- And more
Wellness Care for Puppies and Kittens
Bringing a new puppy or kitten into your home is an exciting and rewarding experience filled with playful moments and new adventures. Give your new furry friend the best start in life with a thorough wellness exam from our veterinary team, building a foundation for long-term health and happiness.
Senior Pet Health Screenings
Older pets require extra care to continue enjoying a high quality of life. For our senior patients, we include a thyroid hormone test (T4) to check for thyroid disorders, which are common in aging pets, and can significantly affect their well-being if not detected early.
We also provide routine screenings for older cats, including Pro-BNP testing, which helps us identify early signs of heart disease. Early detection allows us to implement treatment and management strategies, supporting your pet’s heart health and overall wellness.
Vaccinations to Protect Your Pet
Vaccinations safeguard your pet against preventable illnesses. At PVS - Snellville, we tailor vaccination plans based on your pet’s age, health, and lifestyle to ensure they receive the best protection possible.
Monthly Preventive Care
Protecting your pet from fleas, ticks, and heartworms is crucial for preventing discomfort, skin issues, and serious illnesses such as Lyme disease, Ehrlichiosis, and heartworm disease. Regular use of preventives keeps your pet healthy by avoiding infestations and infections that could lead to severe health problems and costly treatments. Staying consistent with preventive care ensures your pet remains comfortable, happy, and in good health while offering a convenient and cost-effective approach to their overall well-being.
Fecal Examinations
Fecal exams provide valuable insights into your pet’s health by helping us detect common intestinal parasites such as roundworms, hookworms, whipworms, and tapeworms. Early detection enables us to treat these parasites promptly before they lead to more serious health problems.
Since many parasites can be transmitted from pets to humans (zoonotic), regular fecal exams are essential for safeguarding the health of your family and other pets in your household.
