In response to recent COVID-19 concerns, we are writing to assure our clients that we are taking recommended precautions. Please respect social distancing and wear a mask when bringing your pet to their appointment. As clinics continue to offer curbside service, clients will also be able to choose to accompany their pet, one family member per pet, as long as a mask is worn and the pet is examined and treated at the appropriate distance. Please call Wellspring Veterinary Services if you have questions, or would like to covey any special circumtance that would need our consideration. Thank you! Stay Safe Stay Well.
Veterinarians employ state-of-the-art technology that is very similar to technology used in the treatment of humans. Veterinarians in private clinical practice work to prevent disease and other health problems in their patients. They examine animal patients, vaccinate them against diseases, prevent the transmission of animal disease to people, and advise owners on ways to keep pets and livestock well nourished and healthy.
When health problems develop, practitioners must diagnose the problem and treat the patients. Accurate diagnosis frequently requires the use of laboratory tests, radiography or x-rays, and specialized equipment. Treatments may involve a number of procedures including emergency lifesaving measures, prescribing medication, setting a fracture, delivering a calf, performing surgery, or advising the owner on feeding and care of the patient.
