Prevention is personal

Age is only part of the picture. Your pet's routine, environment, health history, and changing needs all help shape a sensible preventive plan. Explore the priorities we discuss at each stage.

Care through every chapter

The relationship remains at the heart of care.

Clinical insight. Everyday comfort.

Comfort is a clinical priority.

When discomfort begins to change everyday life, there is more to discuss than the symptom alone. Highland considers the underlying condition, your pet's overall health, and what a practical care plan can look like.

Medicine with the relationship in mind

Options, considered together.

Look deeper at skin & allergies

Recurring irritation can have more than one cause. Examination, history, and appropriate testing help guide an individualized management plan.

Consider light-based support

Cold-laser therapy is a noninvasive option Highland may include in selected pain, recovery, or supportive-care plans following an assessment.

Discuss regenerative options

Stem-cell and platelet-rich-plasma therapies may be considered for appropriate patients. We discuss suitability, expectations, and the wider treatment plan.

No treatment is a fit for every pet. A clinical assessment comes first.

What you can expect

A visit with a clear next step.

You know your pet's everyday life. We bring the medical perspective. Good care makes room for both, with time to understand the recommendation and ask your questions.

First, we listen.

Tell us what has changed, what is going well, and what concerns you. Your observations help put the exam in context.

Then, we look carefully.

We assess your pet and discuss testing or treatment when appropriate, explaining how each recommendation relates to their needs.

Together, we make a plan.

You leave with a clearer understanding of the options, care at home, and the follow-up we recommend.

A few helpful questions

Do I need to know which service to request?

No. Share the reason for your visit or the changes you have noticed. The Highland team can help you identify a starting point. Request an Appointment or call (812) 867-6651.

What information helps at an appointment?

Bring available medical records, a list of medications and supplements, and your questions. Notes about appetite, behavior, mobility, or changes in routine can help us understand what you see at home. Ask us about any visit-specific instructions when scheduling.

What if surgery or dental care is recommended?

We discuss the recommendation, relevant pre-procedure assessment, and what preparation and recovery may involve. Highland's surgical care includes attention to pain management and monitoring. Follow the individualized instructions our team provides for your pet's procedure.

Are advanced treatments right for every pet?

No. Laser and regenerative therapies are considered within a broader clinical plan, not chosen simply because they are available. Your pet's diagnosis, overall health, and care goals guide the conversation. An examination helps us discuss appropriate options and realistic expectations.

Do you offer care for pets with special needs?

Highland offers medical boarding and grooming support for pets whose health, mobility, or ongoing care needs require additional consideration. Contact the team to discuss your pet's situation, suitability, and availability before making arrangements.
