Compassionate, Timely Care for Pets Who Aren’t Feeling Their Best
Sick Pet Examinations in Virginia Beach, VA
When your pet isn’t acting like themselves, you need answers — and fast. At Great Neck Veterinary Clinic in Virginia Beach, we offer thorough, same-day sick pet exams to help get your companion on the road to recovery as quickly as possible.
Our experienced veterinary team understands that a change in behavior, appetite, or energy can be stressful for both pets and owners. That’s why we take a proactive and compassionate approach to every sick visit, using a combination of advanced diagnostics and personalized care to identify and treat the problem.
What to Expect During a Sick Pet Exam
We begin by listening to your concerns and reviewing your pet’s medical history. From there, we’ll conduct a complete physical exam and may recommend additional testing such as bloodwork, urinalysis, X-rays, or ultrasound if needed. Because our diagnostics are performed in-house, we can often deliver answers and initiate treatment the same day.
