Preventative & Routine Vet Services in Knoxville, TN
Routine wellness care is the best way to protect your pet’s health and detect issues early. At West Hills Animal Hospital in Knoxville, TN, we provide comprehensive preventative services to help your pet live a long, healthy life.
Routine Care Tailored to Your Pet’s Needs
At West Hills Animal Hospital, we believe in a proactive approach to pet health. Preventative care is the foundation of lifelong wellness, helping us detect potential issues before they become serious problems. Our personalized wellness services include everything from pet checkups and vaccinations to parasite control, spaying and neutering, and senior health screenings. Whether you have a playful puppy, a curious cat, or a senior pet with changing needs, we’re here to support their health every step of the way.
Pet Wellness Exams
Regular pet checkups are vital for monitoring your pet’s health over time. Our thorough nose-to-tail wellness exams assess your pet’s weight, heart, lungs, joints, skin, eyes, and more. We’ll answer any questions you have and make personalized recommendations based on your pet’s lifestyle, age, and breed. These visits allow us to catch issues early, before they affect your pet’s quality of life.
Pet Vaccinations & Preventative Shots
Pet vaccinations play a key role in preventing contagious diseases. We offer both core vaccines (like rabies and distemper) and lifestyle-based vaccines (such as Bordetella for social dogs or FeLV for outdoor cats). Keeping your pet up to date with their pet shots helps ensure a healthy, active life and protects other animals in your Knoxville community.
Parasite Prevention & Heartworm Control
Fleas, ticks, intestinal parasites, and heartworms are not only irritating — they can cause serious health issues. Our veterinarians will recommend the right parasite prevention and heartworm preventative for your pet’s age and exposure risk. We offer safe and effective monthly treatments to protect your furry companion year-round.
Spay & Neuter Services
Spaying or neutering your pet is a simple way to prevent unwanted litters and reduce the risk of certain health problems, including reproductive cancers and infections. Our skilled veterinary team performs these surgeries with your pet’s safety and comfort as the top priority.
Senior Pet Wellness & Screening
As your pet ages, routine care becomes even more important. Senior wellness exams focus on age-related concerns such as arthritis, weight gain, dental disease, and organ function. We tailor care plans for older pets to improve comfort, manage chronic conditions, and help them enjoy their golden years.
Pet Microchipping
A microchip is a permanent form of identification that greatly increases the chances of being reunited with a lost pet. It’s a quick, low-stress procedure that provides peace of mind. If your pet isn’t already microchipped, we strongly recommend it during your next visit.
