Comprehensive Physical Exams

Routine physical exams are the cornerstone of preventive veterinary care. These head-to-tail evaluations help us monitor your pet’s health over time and catch signs of illness before they become serious. During each visit, we assess your pet’s weight, temperature, skin and coat condition, heart and lung function, dental health, and more.

Wellness exams also give us the opportunity to discuss your pet’s lifestyle, behavior, and any changes you’ve noticed—so we can offer guidance tailored to your companion’s unique needs.

We provide thorough wellness exams for pets of all ages—puppies, adults, and seniors. If your pet is entering their golden years, we invite you to discover our personalized approach to senior pet care.

Pet Vaccinations: Core and Lifestyle Protection

Vaccinations are essential for preventing life-threatening diseases like rabies, parvovirus, and distemper. At Altitude Animal Hospital, we create individualized vaccine schedules based on your pet’s age, lifestyle, and exposure risks.

  • Core vaccines are recommended for all pets and include critical protections against highly contagious diseases.
  • Lifestyle vaccines (such as Bordetella or Rattlesnake) are recommended based on your pet’s activities, travel habits, or boarding needs.

Our team follows veterinary best practices to ensure your pet receives the right vaccines at the right time.

Parasite Prevention: Fleas, Ticks, and Heartworms

Parasites like fleas, ticks, and heartworms pose serious risks to your pet’s health, and some can even be transmitted to people. We offer a full range of parasite prevention solutions, including monthly preventatives for fleas, ticks, and heartworms.

These easy-to-administer treatments are safe, effective, and critical to your pet’s long-term wellness. We’ll help you choose the best options based on your pet’s health, environment, and lifestyle.

Veterinary Nutrition Counseling

Nutrition plays a powerful role in your pet’s health, from supporting energy and digestion to managing weight, allergies, and chronic conditions. Our pet nutrition counseling services help you understand what your pet needs to thrive.

Whether you have questions about choosing the right food, managing your pet’s diet, or selecting a prescription formula, we’ll create a customized plan that aligns with your pet’s age, breed, and medical history.
