What to Expect
Preparing for your visit
When choosing a veterinary clinic, you deserve exceptional care and outstanding service. At Gainesville Animal Hospital, we’ve built a team of skilled veterinary professionals dedicated to delivering the highest level of care for your pet. Our clean, modern facilities are equipped with advanced diagnostic tools to ensure efficient, comfortable visits. We offer walk-in visits at our East location and appointment-based care at our West location.
Your Pet’s Annual Visit
We recommend bringing your pet in once a year for a full wellness exam. This check-up may include vaccinations, parasite screenings, dental evaluations, and any preventive care tailored to your pet’s age and health status. Our team examines every pet head to tail to keep them healthy and thriving.
What to Bring
If you have your pet’s medical records or a health journal, please bring them along. Noting changes in behavior, appetite, or routine can help our team understand your pet’s needs. But don’t worry—if you don’t have documentation, we’ll still provide thorough care based on the information you can share.
