Veterinary Services | Weight Loss | Weight Management
Capitol Illini offers weight loss and weight management services for dogs and cats with weight-related health problems. The goal of our healthy weight program is to help clients achieve a healthy weight for their pet. The most successful outcomes result from combining follow up (e.g. visits, weigh-ins, and phone consultations) and ongoing communication.
Weight Loss | Weight Management Services include the following:
- Initial Doctor and technician evaluation includes: complete physical exam, extended environmental history, evaluation of current dietary intake, therapy recommendations, and lab evaluation as indicated.
- Follow-up consultations by phone and office visit.
- Take home packet including: weight management information, at-home environmental enrichment, and expected goals/progress for each pet.
- Slentrol, a vet prescribed oral liquid medication for dogs only to aid in a weight loss program.
