Year-Round Protection from Fleas, Ticks, and Heartworms
Parasite Prevention in Virginia Beach, VA
Parasites may be small, but they pose serious risks to your pet’s health — and to your family’s well-being. At Great Neck Veterinary Clinic, we offer comprehensive parasite prevention in Virginia Beach to keep your dog or cat protected from fleas, ticks, heartworms, and intestinal worms all year long.
Preventative care is always more effective (and more affordable) than treating an infestation or infection. Our veterinary team will work with you to create a customized protection plan based on your pet’s lifestyle, age, and risk level.
