Wellness Exams

Regular wellness exams help maintain your pet's optimal health through comprehensive physical assessments. Our veterinarians evaluate vital signs, dental health, and organ function while providing preventive care recommendations. Early detection of potential issues allows for timely intervention, ensuring your pet receives appropriate care before conditions worsen. These routine visits form the foundation of lifelong veterinary care.

Dental Care

Professional dental cleanings and oral health assessments prevent periodontal disease and systemic infections. We use advanced techniques to remove tartar buildup and treat gum disease while educating owners about home care practices. Regular dental maintenance protects against heart, liver, and kidney complications associated with poor oral health in pets.

Emergency Services

Critical care for pets requiring immediate attention outside regular hours through our partnership with UrgentVet. Available for trauma, poisoning, severe illness, and other life-threatening conditions, this service ensures continuous care when time-sensitive treatment is necessary. Our team coordinates follow-up care for ongoing medical needs.

Pain Management

Customized treatment plans address acute and chronic pain from arthritis, injuries, or post-surgical recovery. We combine medication, lifestyle modifications, and alternative therapies like laser treatment to improve mobility and comfort. Our approach focuses on maintaining quality of life while minimizing discomfort for aging or injured pets.

Behavioral Medicine

Specialized consultations address anxiety, aggression, and destructive behaviors through scientific assessment and training guidance. We develop tailored behavior modification strategies while considering environmental factors and medical causes. This service helps strengthen the human-animal bond through improved understanding and communication.

I absolutely LOVED my visit with CountryChase Veterinary. They made my two cats feel incredibly comfortable and at ease. The clinic is GORGEOUS - super clean and beautiful. It felt like a spa! The staff and doctor were incredibly knowledgeable, thorough, and caring. Could not recommend it enough!

I have been going to CountryChase recently due to poor experiences with my pets at Westchase Veterinary and Emergency Center. My cat had a senior profile draw on Friday, March 25. I was told results came back inconclusive and I had to bring him back AND pay for another blood draw with pathology taken on April 1. I received another call saying the results came back inconclusive, and was asked to bring him back on Friday, April 15.

I have complied with everything they have asked me to do and have yet to receive a phone call from Dr. Whitten with results. I have called 3x this week, each day a front desk staff member confirming the dr. would call me back the day I called.no calls or missed calls from CountryChase. If this continues, I will have to keep searching for a more responsible Veterinary.

Poor customer service and overall quality has decreased over the years. Such a shame as this practice had great services in previous years. I hope they turn things around before losing more clients.

Reliably timely and friendly service. I am about to start taking my cats there after taking my parent's dog there for them a few times for both routine healthcare and grooming in the last few months. In speaking with others while checking in/out, all expressed much appreciation for the service they received irrespective of the tech or vet who cared for their dog or cat.

Great dermatology vet for my Brooklyne! Helping us cure her skin problems. Just disappointed our vet is moving to Largo, now we'll have to drive even farther from Thonotosassa to get to her for dermatology vet care!

We've had nothing but fantastic experiences with CountryChase Veterinary. We just moved from out of state, and it took a couple of tries to find a vet that is a perfect fit. CountryChase has exceeded our expectations every time. They are warm, caring, understanding and they always follow up to see how the fur babies are doing. If they do not have a specialist or resources (ie. MRI, Internist, etc.), they make great recommendations and check in often.
