Pre-Purchase Exams
We understand completely the excitement – and the worry – that comes with adopting a new pet. That’s why Alto Tiburon Veterinary Hospital offers Pre-Purchase Exams as part of our comprehensive suite of services.
What is a Pre-Purchase Exam exactly? It’s an opportunity for you to discuss with a trusted animal care provider any concerns you might have about your potential new furry family member.
These exams typically include:
- Breed education
- Bloodwork
- Screenings for parasites and kennel cough
- An ECG
- Optional COVID testing
- Examination of parentage if available
You and your veterinarian might also discuss the ins and outs of pet insurance, as well as dietary recommendations.
The main reason we conduct Pre-Purchase Exams is that we believe, before you take the leap of adopting a new pet, you should be as informed as possible. To schedule one, give us a call at (415) 383-7700.
