Geriatric Medicine
Thanks to several decades of rapid advancement in veterinary medicine there is a new segment of the profession that is gaining increased emphasis, geriatrics.
Our pets are living longer and longer, and that means that conditions that were usually reserved for only the lucky few who lived into old age are now becoming more and more prevalent.
Diseases and conditions like osteoarthritis, severe periodontal disease, back pain, neurologic dysfunction, incontinence, and dementia are now seen quite frequently.
Having had several dogs live past the age of 15 recently, Dr. McGarity understands personally the challenges of taking care of elderly pets. We want you and your pet to enjoy the precious time you have left together.
Through a combination of medications, nutraceuticals, diet, and various other aids we can take some of the stress out of caring for these treasured family members.
Don’t just assume it may be time to say goodbye, please schedule a consult, we may be able to help.
Dr. Adam McGarity welcomes you to visit the new Mill Town Veterinary Clinic.
"I appreciate all parts of my calling, however, I truly appreciate helping pet owners with wellness and preventative medicine since it is so compelling in keeping a pet healthy."
Serving Fort Mill, Rock Hill, Tega Cay, Pineville, and the Charlotte Area with individual consideration for every one of your pets.
