🐶 Meet Mia! This sweet 10-week-old puppy came into EVS Pet Urgent Care of Kissimmee with diarrhea. Since puppies are more vulnerable to serious illnesses, we tested for parvovirus first, which thankfully was negative. We then checked for giardia—and the test came back positive. Luckily, with the right treatment, Mia is on her way to feeling better! She went home with medication and plenty of love. 💛

One treatment option we offer at EVS Pet Urgent Care is Cytopoint—a long-lasting injection that provides relief for weeks, so no daily allergy meds are needed!

Because sometimes, there’s more going on than meets the eye.

A cat recently came to EVS Pet Urgent Care for a completely unrelated issue. As part of our standard physical exam, the veterinarian checked the ears and discovered ear mites—something the owner hadn’t noticed but was causing discomfort for the cat.

If we had only treated the initial concern without a full exam, the ear mites might have gone undiagnosed, leading to itching, irritation, and even infection.

This is why every pet gets a full physical exam at EVS. We don’t just treat symptoms—we make sure your pet is truly healthy from head to tail.
