Wellness & Preventative Healthcare
Good medical care starts with wellness and prevention of disease. Prevention of parasites and parasite-transmitted diseases is of the utmost importance, particularly in an area like South Central Texas. Due to the mild climate there is no time of the year where parasites naturally die. Therefore, we need to protect our pets from fleas, ticks, heartworms and intestinal parasites year-round. Sayers Animal Hospital is always up to date with information about the latest products and our technicians will explain to you which product is most suitable for your pet. We do recommend yearly (for younger pets) and every six months (for pets over 7 years) wellness exams for every pet.
Do you have Companion Protect pet insurance? Be sure to use your free annual wellness exam! Two per year if your pet is over 7 years old.
