Pet Oncology Services We Offer

Cancer care for pets involves many aspects, from early detection and diagnosis to personalized treatment plans and ongoing monitoring. While we do not offer radiation therapy, we provide a range of services to support your pet through their cancer journey, including:

Diagnosis and Staging

  • Advanced Diagnostics: Using tools like bloodwork, imaging (X-rays and ultrasound), and biopsies, we can accurately identify the type of cancer and determine how far it has progressed.
  • Individualized Staging Plans: Cancer staging helps us understand the extent of the disease and create a treatment plan tailored to your pet’s condition.

Chemotherapy Treatments

  • Safe and Effective Chemotherapy: Chemotherapy is generally well-tolerated in pets, with minimal side effects that can often be managed with other therapies.
  • Targeted Protocols: We select specific chemotherapy drugs and dosages based on the type of cancer, minimizing discomfort while maximizing effectiveness.

Ongoing Monitoring and Support

  • Regular Assessments: We monitor your pet’s response to treatment through follow-up exams, imaging, and blood tests to ensure the best possible outcomes.
  • Supportive Care: Managing side effects and ensuring your pet remains comfortable is a cornerstone of our oncology services.

Recognizing the Signs of Cancer in Pets

Early detection is key to successful treatment. Be on the lookout for potential warning signs of cancer, including:

  • Unexplained lumps or bumps
  • Non-healing wounds
  • Changes in appetite or weight
  • Persistent coughing or difficulty breathing
  • Lethargy or decreased activity
  • Swelling or pain in limbs

If you notice any of these symptoms, schedule an appointment with us right away. Early intervention can make a significant difference in your pet’s prognosis.
