🩺 Smile if you’re getting your blood pressure checked! 😄

🐶 This sweet pup just came out of a procedure and is getting a quick blood pressure assessment to make sure they’re recovering smoothly. 💙

🌟 Did you know? Monitoring blood pressure - especially after surgery or in senior pets - helps us detect any underlying issues early, like high blood pressure (hypertension), which can affect the kidneys, eyes, heart, and more.

🐾 At The Drake Center, we go the extra mile to make sure your pet is not only safe, but cozy and cared for every step of the way. 💕

📅 If your pet is scheduled for surgery, has a chronic condition, or is 7+ years old, ask us about blood pressure screenings and follow-up care. We’re here to help! 👩‍⚕️
