The Prevention Club
Because preventive care is always easier and more affordable than treating illness, we created The Prevention Club for pet families in Lakewood Ranch, Sarasota, and Bradenton.
Our customizable Wellness Plans are designed to make managing your pet’s health simple and budget-friendly. With convenient monthly payments, you can stay ahead of routine care while avoiding unexpected costs.
Membership includes:
- Unlimited office visits
- Unlimited nail trims
- Exclusive discounts on preventive services
- Special savings throughout the year
Ask our team about The Prevention Club and discover how proactive care can keep your pet healthy, while helping you plan confidently for the future.

What to expect
What to Expect During Your First Visit
From the moment you walk in, you’ll notice the difference. You’ll be greeted with warm smiles, welcomed into our modern, purpose-built facility, offered a seat in our separate dog or cat lobby, and brought into an exam room promptly because a calm, comfortable start matters.
Your Visit
And So Much More
A Thoughtful, Unrushed Visit
Your appointment is designed around comfort and clarity from start to finish. One of our veterinary technicians will begin by gathering your pet’s history and listening carefully to your concerns. Your veterinarian will then join you for a thorough, whole pet exam, often at eye level or down on the floor with your pet, so both you and your pet feel at ease.
Together, we’ll clearly explain our findings, discuss recommendations, and answer any questions you may have. When it’s time to wrap up, we make checkout simple, with in-room options available when needed.
At University Animal Clinic, we prioritize quality over quantity so you’ll never feel rushed during your visit.
