Pet Oncology (study of cancer)
As our dogs and cats have started living longer and advances in veterinary diagnostics have improved, we have been making advances in the detection and treatment of cancers in our pets.
We at Mt. Carmel Animal Hospital believe in treating cancer just like any other disease process and are able to perform many diagnostics and treatments in-house. Whether diagnosing what type of tumor it is or coming up with a treatment protocol, we individualize each pet’s protocol to their and your needs.
Common pet cancers that we treat include but are not limited to:
- Lymphosarcoma
- Bladder Cancer
- Osteosarcoma (Bone Cancer)
- Mast Cell tumor
- Fibrosarcoma
- Hemangiosarcoma
Services include:
- Cytology and biopsy for diagnosis
- Chemotherapy
- Surgical tumor removal
- Holistic/alternative treatments
- Pain control
- Consultations
- Hospice care
