Wellness care is necessary for companion animals regardless of their age and is the key ingredient to maintaining overall health. Here at Nebraska Animal Medical and Emergency Center, pet wellness in Omaha is our expertise, and our compassionate team is here to assist you in providing the appropriate treatment for your cat or dog during all life stages. Please read on to learn all about wellness services and why they're so important to your cherished companion’s general health and wellbeing.

What Are Routine Wellness Services?

Vet services intended to ward off health problems are considered routine wellness services. Usually, routine wellness appointments include a comprehensive hands-on exam and conversations with your pet’s vet about recommended services, including vaccinations and/or parasite prevention. We may discuss other things, too, such as spaying/neutering, nutrition or behavior counseling, or microchipping.

Why Is Wellness Care So Important?

Making sure that your beloved pet's routine wellness needs are met is one of the most effective ways to help them enjoy as many happy, healthy years by your side as possible. Staying on top of preventive care also gives us an opportunity to uncover mild signs of trouble and start an appropriate course of treatment as early as possible. Bringing your pet in just once or twice every year can literally add years to their life, and who wouldn’t want to enjoy more years with their fur baby?
