Pet Internal Medicine

When an unforeseen medical condition arises in your pet, we are well-equipped to handle it. Body systems affected can range from dermatology, endocrinology, gastroenterology, neurology, ophthalmology, oncology, and cardiology. We will find the best treatment plan for you and your pet. If a condition arises that is beyond our capacity to diagnose or treat, we will offer a referral to a specialist.

An Endoscopy is a procedure used in medicine to look inside the body in a non-invasive way. We use it primarily for inspection, biopsy, or foreign body removal from the gastrointestinal tract. For example, instead of going into surgery, endoscopy was used first, and three socks were removed from our K-9 patient; this saved the patient from having to undergo a surgical procedure.
