How long do dog wellness exams usually take?

You should plan to be here for about 30 minutes. It's going to start with the technician asking you many questions about diet and the dog’s history, getting an idea of whether you have questions specifically for the doctor. The tech will also get the dog’s weight on the scale, take you into the room, and then have the physical exam done with the doctor. If there are any other tests that we recommend, we would need to draw blood, potentially take an x-ray, or other things like that. I would say the average is about 30 minutes.

A typical wellness exam takes 20 minutes, but if we have any concerns, like an ear infection, it may take up to 40 minutes.

Dog wellness exams typically take about 30 minutes, which allows adequate time for the technician to gather a full history, the doctor to perform the exam, administer any necessary vaccines, and answer any questions you may have.

A dog wellness exam typically takes around 30 minutes. This time is divided between the technician taking the dog's basic history, the veterinarian performing the examination, and discussing any test results. Some test results, like blood work, may take a day or two to come back and may be discussed at a later time.

A dog wellness exam typically takes between 10 to 15 minutes from start to finish.
