Recognizing and alleviating pain is a fundamental ethical obligation in veterinary medicine. At WellPet, we are committed to providing sophisticated and compassionate pain management for pets suffering from acute pain (after surgery or injury) or chronic pain (from conditions like arthritis). We believe that effective pain managment is essential for healing and maintaining a good quality of life, and we utilize a multi-modal approach to address pain from multiple angles.

Our pain management strategies are tailored to each pet and may include a combination of safe prescription medications, anti-inflammatory drugs, laser therapy, physical therapy exercises, and nutritional supplements like glucosamine. For surgical patients, we administer pain managment before, during, and after the procedure. For pets with chronic osteoarthritis, we create long-term plans that allow them to remain active and comfortable.

We educate owners on the subtle signs of pain in pets, which can include lethargy, reluctance to move, changes in appetite, or behavioral shifts. If you suspect your pet is in pain, don’t hesitate to seek help. Our veterinarians will conduct a thorough examination to identify the source of discomfort and create a personalized pain managment plan to bring relief and restore joy to your pet’s life.
