Well-care examinations are the cornerstone of health care for your pet. It is far easier, and safer, to prevent medical problems than it is to treat them after they occur. Routine physical examinations and discussions of your pet's health allow the doctors at the Animal Hospital of Chester County to make sure your pet stays healthy, and to catch minor problems before they become major problems.
At the Animal Hospital of Chester County, we understand the concern you feel when your pet is feeling ill. As part of our commitment to providing compassionate care, we'll perform a thorough assessment of your pet, and give you all the options available to diagnose and treat illnesses to get your pet back to get your pet back to his or her healthy, happy self!
Our team performs surgeries on the premises and cares for pets both before and after surgical procedures. If surgery is recommended, a pre-surgical examination is performed to assess your pet's health and ability to have surgery. Additionally, blood tests, blood pressure reading, and an ECG may be recommended. Among the surgical procedures provided are:
After surgery, pets are closely monitored by the doctors and staff. Round-the-clock monitoring is available at local emergency care facilities. In addition, the doctors maintain close relationships with surgical specialists in the area. If necessary, patients can be referred to local specialists for care.
Dentistry is a critical, often over-looked part of health care for your pet. Routine cleanings are needed to maintain the overall health of your pet. Additionally, a pet with dental disease is not only in pain, but is also at risk of developing serious diseases of the entire body. The Animal Hospital of Chester Country is pleased to provide routine care of your pet's teeth and to treat diseases of the mouth, gums, and teeth.

The doctors at the Animal Hospital of Chester County recommend that all cats and dogs receive identification micro-chips. These chips are tiny, rice-sized devices that contain valuable identification information to help your lost pet find its way home. During an office call, the chips are easily implanted under the skin and remain as a permanent means to identify your pet if lost. The chips are readable with a small hand-held scanner that allows the information to be retrieved rapidly and lets your pet be traced back to your home. It is an unfortunate fact of life that pets get lost. It is another unfortunate fact that many pets are not reunited with their owners. Because veterinarians and animal shelters routinely scan for micro-chips, your pet has a much better chance of being returned to you if the animal carries a micro-chip.
