Point Loma Veterinary Clinic

Preventive Care

Dental Care
Vaccination
Comprehensive Examination
Because of the shorter lifespan of our pets, we stress the importance of an annual physical examination. Thorough check-ups and preventive care can help alleviate serious health problems.

Illness Treatment

Parasites Treatment and Control
Heartworm disease develops when a dog is bitten by a mosquito that is carrying heartworm larvae from the blood of an infected dog. Due to the serious health consequences and the additional dangers associated with treatment when a dog is tested positive for heartworms, we are recommending heartworm prevention for all dogs. A single injection of the heartworm prevention medicine will protect your dog from getting heartworms for 6 mo.
Pain Management
Skin Condition and Allergy Treatment

Chronic Condition Treatment

Heart Disease Treatment
Periodontal Disease Treatment
It is much harder for your pet to pick up it's food if the front teeth are missing, and it is much harder to chew food if several of the pre-molars and molars are loose, infected, or missing. Dental disease is the most common medical abnormality that affects dogs and cats. Many dogs and cats start developing periodontal disease (the loss of bone and tissues around the tooth roots) due to infection below the "gum-line" by 4 years of age. Your pet doesn't have to have visible tarter to have periodontal disease.

Wound and Fracture Care
The Complete Coverage Health Insurance Plans offered by ASPCA helps pay for emergencies, doctor exams, and a variety of medical and surgical conditions. Your pet will be covered for Accidents (such as poisonings, lacerations, bite wounds, heat stroke, foreign bodies, bone fractures, burns, bee stings and motor vehicle accidents) and illnesses including prescription medications, diagnostic procedures, laboratory tests, surgery, hospitalization, X-rays, CT scans and ultrasound studies. For instance, in 2024, you would pay about $47.00/month for an 8-year-old cat with a Complete Coverage Health Insurance plan with a $250 annual deductible, a $5000 annual limit and your veterinary costs would be reimbursed 90% of what you paid to the vet hospital. For a 4-year-old Labrador dog with the same coverage, you would pay about $67.00/mo.

Veterinary Surgery

Laboratory Services
There is also a way to pay for most of the costs of the annual wellness exam, vaccines, blood tests, fecal parasite test, deworming, urinalysis, flea medication and allows a $150 budget for teeth cleaning when you purchase the Prime Preventive Care Plan. (Extractions are considered a disease so they are covered under your pet’s Insurance Plan.) There is an annual benefit of $500/year for the Prime Preventive Care Plan. It only costs around $25/month and has no deductible but, you must also have an ASPCA Complete Coverage Insurance Plan. Corporate Vet Hospital Wellness Plans are much more expensive than Prime Preventive Care and they have many exclusions including diagnostics, surgeries and medications when your pet becomes ill or injured and they don’t cover your pet’s expenses at an emergency clinic, for a specialist or in many out-of-town locations.
X-Ray
Dental Radiology
Anesthesia is necessary to clean all of the surfaces of the teeth (including the spaces between the gum tissue and the teeth), check for pockets of infection around the tooth roots, to inspect all of the teeth to see if they are loose, cracked, or have the equivalent of cavities, and to take dental X-rays. The anesthetics that we use today are much safer than what we had available 20 or more years ago.
Microchipping
