What is a Veterinary Oncologist?

Once a pet owner receives a cancer diagnosis for their pet, the next step is to meet with a veterinary oncologist. Experienced in cancer treatment, an oncologist will fully assess your pet's health history. They will also perform a physical examination. Various treatment plans will then be recommended. Many of these treatment plans can be performed locally with your own veterinarian or at a center that specializes in cancer treatments.

What Treatments are Offered?

Cutting-edge diagnostic procedures, including biopsies and ultrasounds, are regularly performed by our veterinarians. Location, type, and behavior of a tumor are expertly analyzed. Post-diagnosis, our specialists will describe the cancer type and offer various treatment options directly to you. Options are tailored to your pet's prognosis and lifestyle.

Numerous cancer treatments are available, including vaccines, anti-vascular drugs, surgery, radiotherapy, and chemotherapy.
