Why do you recommend performing bloodwork on a yearly basis on my pets?
This is a question my receptionists get all the time. In addition to performing a yearly physical exam we recommend performing yearly bloodwork. This yearly blood exam checks your pet’ kidneys, liver, blood sugar and blood protein. It is very easy to perform these blood tests at the same time we perform the yearly heart worm test. In our senior or geriatric pets we may recommend some additional blood test.
