Your Trusted Vet Care and Pet Health Service
Cardiology is an area of veterinary medicine involving the diagnosis and management of congenital and acquired heart diseases in animals.
Diagnosis of heart disease can be complex and require a series of diagnostic tools and techniques. Typically, a full assessment involves a series of steps to ensure that your pet is properly assessed and receives the right diagnosis.
What does a work-up entail?
- Physical examination
- Baseline X-rays and blood tests
- Electrocardiography (ECG) to monitor your pet’s heart rhythm
- Echocardiography to assess the structure and function of their heart
Once a diagnosis is reached, treatment options may include medications, dietary changes, lifestyle modifications, or referral to specialists for surgical intervention.
Regular follow-up visits to assess how your pet is responding to treatment allows us to make any necessary adjustments if required. Ultimately, we work closely with you to provide the care required to help your pet maintain the highest quality of life possible.
