Services
Wellness Exams
Annual wellness exams help maintain pet health through comprehensive physical exams, vaccination planning, and disease screening. These preventive visits detect early signs of illness when treatment is most effective. Our veterinarians create customized care plans based on each pet's age, breed, and health status.
Senior Pet Care
Bi-annual exams for pets aged seven and older include blood tests, organ function assessments, and dental evaluations. We monitor for age-related conditions like arthritis and kidney disease while providing pain management solutions to maintain quality of life.
Vaccinations
Core and lifestyle-based vaccines protect pets from infectious diseases. We follow AAHA and AAFP guidelines to create vaccination schedules that balance protection with individual risk factors, including rabies, distemper, and Lyme disease prevention.
Teeth Cleaning
Professional dental cleanings include scaling, polishing, and digital X-rays under anesthesia. We treat periodontal disease and provide home care guidance to prevent oral infections that can affect systemic health in pets.
Allergy Treatment
We diagnose and manage environmental and food allergies through skin testing, blood work, and elimination diets. Treatment plans combine medications, hypoallergenic diets, and topical therapies to reduce itching and secondary infections.

Just switched from Heritage. Had been with them for probably 18 yrs +. I lost trust. I've taken 3 of my cats there, to Dundee Veterinarian, now and they seem very nice. Gave report print out for each. Am new to them/they're new to me but, so far I'm happy

Our visit went very well. The staff is kind, compassionate, and understanding of our "anxious Kane." Jordyn is great with Kane. She greets & pets him, he actually calms down and goes right in room. Also, Dr. Schenk communicates and is very informative; while listening to our concerns about Kane. We never felt hurried or rushed! We usually dread taking Kane for his yearly Vet. visit, but it was a GREAT visit.

I just started with the Dundee Veterinary Clinic with my 2 senior dogs. This is an amazing place! I highly recommend this place. I love the fact that the Vet comes outside to talk to me to explain what is going on with my dogs. She never rushes but takes her time. The staff are all very pleasant as well. I wish I would have started there earlier with my dogs!
