Our Professional Services
Preventive Health and Wellness Care
Prevention is the key to a long and healthy life for your pet. With this in mind, Glenview Animal Hospital emphasizes proactive preventive veterinary medical care.
Puppy/Kitten Health:
Our Puppy/Kitten Wellness Care ensures your new family member gets a healthy start in life with a series of examinations, vaccinations and diagnostic testing.
Wellness Exams:
Preventive Wellness Care, including vaccinations and diagnostic testing, are customized for your pet's needs based on a comprehensive examination assessing your pet's age, breed and lifestyle.
Mature Care:
Seeing our mature pets semiannually is essential to helping them live a longer, healthier and more comfortable life. Thorough examinations allow for early diagnosis, treatment and ideally, prevention of illness. In addition, this is an opportunity to discuss nutrition, behavior and other concerns.
Flea and Tick Prevention
In this climate, fleas and ticks are a problem year-round. Ticks, who transmit Lyme and other diseases, thrive at the freezing point and can still be active during the winter months. Our pets can come into contact with the parasites when they are around other animals inside, at play dates with friends, or playing outside. Prevention and screening are key to keeping our pets free from these parasites. Our staff will recommend the appropriate preventative to match your pet's lifestyle including chews, topical treatments and collars.
Heartworm Prevention
Heartworm disease is a serious and potentially fatal disease in dogs and cats that can be transmitted through bites from an infected mosquito. Heartworm disease can result in foot-long worms (heartworms) that live in the heart, lungs and associated blood vessels. Prevention and screening are key to keeping our pets free from this parasite. Our staff will recommend the appropriate preventative to match your pet's lifestyle including chews, and topical treatments.
Microchipping
We recommend that all pets be microchipped. Lost pets that have been microchipped have a much greater chance of being returned to their owners. Veterinary hospitals, shelters and police departments have the ability to scan stray pets and reunite them with their families.
Nutritional Counseling
Many of our pets have special concerns when it comes to their nutritional needs. There are diets that aid in weight reduction, maintain urinary health, provide joint care, manage environmental and food allergies, reduce dental disease and many other conditions. Our doctors and staff will help you find the best diet for your pet.
Behavior Counseling
Many of our patients have some kind of behavior issue at some point in their life. These may include new pet concerns, cats not using their litter box, puppies chewing everything in sight, and many others. We can give you some recommendations once the underlying medical causes for the behaviors are ruled out. If behavior issues are more serious, we will help you get the assistance that you need through trainers and behavior specialist referrals.
Cold laser therapy is a valuable pain management tool for older dogs with arthritis or those with compromised livers that prevent them from being able to take pain medication. It is a great option for cats as well, since there are fewer pain control options considered safe for them.
Your pets dental care is an important part of their overall health program. Dental disease can lead to bacterial infections, pain, tooth loss and contribute to periodontal disease. A complete oral examination with full mouth dental radiographs (x-rays), help to identify issues that are occurring below the gum line. A professional ultrasonic dental cleaning and polishing under general anesthesia will ensure a longer and healthier life.
