Initial Rehabilitation Exam

The team of physical rehabilitation veterinarians at FVR dedicate an hour to assessing your dog or cat's condition, strength, and function to create an individualized plan to help them recover from injuries, surgeries, or chronic conditions that affect their mobility and quality of life.

Your vet will check things like:

  • your pet's pain level

  • joint movement

  • muscle strength

  • and how their nervous system is working

They'll also consider your pet's posture, weight, diet, home environment, goals, and lifestyle to understand any challenges they may face.

Dr Badge performs a veterinary physical rehab therapy exam on a medium sized black/brindle dog at the vet rehab center, FVR, in Deland, FL.

Based on this comprehensive assessment, your vet will create a personalized treatment plan for your pet that focuses on relieving pain, improving physical function, returning to sport, or helping them return to their favorite activities.

All of the exam findings will be discussed in detail with you, followed by a customized rehabilitation plan. Our rehabilitation plan will aim to help reduce inflammation, accelerate recovery from injury or surgery, facilitate weight loss, improve circulation, and promote overall health and wellbeing for your pet.
