Frequently asked questions
What is the average cost of a wellness exam?
There is no honest single number, because species, vaccine boosters, and whether bloodwork or a senior panel is due all change the invoice. We give an itemized estimate before those extras are added so you can keep the wellness exam itself and decline optional screening. Ask us to separate the exam from labs and vaccines when you book.
What does a full wellness exam include?
A wellness exam is a hands-on check of eyes, ears, teeth, heart, lungs, abdomen, joints, and skin, plus a talk about diet, parasite prevention, and what you have noticed at home. Vaccines, fecal tests, heartworm tests, and bloodwork are recommended when they fit that pet, not as one locked bundle. You can accept the exam and pause on optional diagnostics.
Are wellness exams free with insurance?
Usually not at checkout. Pet insurance and wellness plans differ, and many reimburse you after the visit rather than making the exam free here. Bring your coverage details and we will itemize the invoice so you can submit the exam, bloodwork, or vaccines; declining a test you cannot afford is not treated as a character test.
Will urgent care do a wellness exam?
Urgent care is for the pet who is sick, injured, or not acting like themselves today, not a stand-in for a scheduled wellness visit. If your Reno pet needs vaccines or a routine exam, book a wellness appointment so preventative care is not squeezed into a sick-pet slot. If it cannot wait, call (775) 826-1212 and we will tell you whether to come in for urgent care or hold for a wellness exam.
