Geriatric services are specifically designed to cater to the unique needs of our ageing pets. As animals enter their senior years, they may experience age-related health issues and require specialised care. Our geriatric services focus on promoting the comfort, well-being, and overall quality of life for our senior pets.
Our veterinarians provide comprehensive geriatric assessments including physical examinations, blood work and diagnostic imaging to detect and manage age-related conditions such as arthritis, kidney disease, cognitive decline and dental problems. These services often include tailored nutritional plans and specialised diets, pain management strategies, mobility aids, regular monitoring to ensure that senior pets receive the support they need and other holistic treatments. Our veterinary team is trained to recognise signs of aged-related health problems and have experience in providing optimal care for older animals. Regular check-ups involve more frequent tests than those given to younger pets to monitor changes in your pet’s health.
Our veterinarians can also help to plan for end-of-life care when that time comes. Geriatric services play a crucial role in helping pet owners navigate the challengers of their pet’s aging process, providing them with valuable guidance and compassionate care to ensure that their senior pets enjoy their golden years to the fullest.
