💭 A common question our Practice Advisors receive is why a veterinarian may recommend a physical examination before providing certain veterinary services.

Veterinarians use their professional judgment to determine when a physical examination is appropriate based on an animal's individual needs, health status, and risk factors. Taking the time to discuss the reasons for a recommended examination can help avoid misunderstandings, support informed decision-making, and strengthen communication between clients and veterinary teams.

August is ( ), a reminder of the important role vaccinations have in preventing disease.

Vaccinations are a key part of preventive veterinary care. They help protect animals from serious, potentially life-threatening diseases such as rabies, parvovirus, and distemper. Vaccines can also help reduce the spread of some diseases between animals and, in some cases, people.

Talk to your veterinary team about the vaccinations that may be recommended to help keep your animal healthy and protected.
