Oncology

Facing the diagnosis of cancer in your pet can be a very upsetting and overwhelming experience. Our Vets will discuss all possible treatments available and what they involve. The type of treatment involved varies depending on the location, type, and stage of cancer. The main therapies used to treat animals with cancer involve chemotherapy, surgery, radiation, and immunotherapy.  Your pet may be referred to an external oncology specialist depending on the treatment they require.

We often refer to SASH for oncology (diagnosis and treatment of cancer) and ophthalmology (diagnosis and treatment of disorders of the eye).  

etic at Cooks Hill Vet Clinic, this is due to the fact that kidney and liver function may begin to decline at this age despite there being no outward signs of deterioration.
