Conditions We Treat

Otitis (itchy, smelly, painful ears) — diagnosed with cytology and treated to resolve the underlying cause.

Skin & Ear

Itching, recurrent infections, and hot spots from environmental, flea, or food allergies.

Skin & Ear

Osteoarthritis and joint pain managed with multimodal pain control to keep pets mobile and comfortable.

Orthopedic

A torn cranial cruciate ligament destabilizes the knee and is one of the most common causes of hind-limb lameness in dogs.

Orthopedic

A kneecap that slips out of its groove, causing intermittent skipping or lameness — common in small breeds.

Orthopedic

Abnormal hip development that leads to pain and arthritis, with surgical options that depend on the pet's age.

Orthopedic

Abnormal elbow development (FMCP, UAP, OCD, incongruity) causing front-limb lameness in growing dogs.

Orthopedic

Broken bones from trauma, stabilized surgically to restore alignment and function.

Orthopedic

Tartar, gingivitis, and tooth decay — a leading cause of pain and organ stress in dogs and cats.

Dental

Excess weight that increases the risk of diabetes, arthritis, and heart disease, managed with tailored plans.

Wellness

Insulin-regulation disorder managed with diet, monitoring, and treatment to restore quality of life.

Endocrine

Overactive thyroid in cats causing weight loss and hyperactivity — diagnosed by bloodwork and managed long-term.

Endocrine

Underactive thyroid in dogs causing weight gain, lethargy, and coat changes — managed with daily medication.

Endocrine

Overproduction of cortisol causing increased thirst, appetite, and panting — diagnosed and medically managed.

Endocrine

Underproduction of adrenal hormones causing weakness and GI signs — controllable with lifelong therapy.

Endocrine

Progressive loss of kidney function in older pets, slowed with early detection, diet, and supportive care.

Internal Medicine

Inflammation of the pancreas causing vomiting and abdominal pain, managed with supportive and dietary care.

Internal Medicine

Acute and chronic GI upset worked up with lab tests, imaging, and endoscopy to find the cause.

Internal Medicine

Swallowed objects that obstruct the stomach or intestines — often a surgical emergency.

Internal Medicine

Gastric dilatation-volvulus — a life-threatening twisting of the stomach requiring emergency surgery.

Internal Medicine

Severe, chronic constipation from an enlarged, poorly functioning colon — most common in cats.

Internal Medicine

Murmurs, valve disease, and cardiomyopathy evaluated by echocardiogram and managed by our cardiology team.

Cardiology

Straining, accidents, and blood in the urine from infections, stones, or feline lower urinary tract disease.

Urinary

Mineral stones in the bladder causing straining, blood in urine, and life-threatening obstruction.

Urinary

Skin masses and internal tumors evaluated with aspirates, biopsy, and imaging to guide treatment options.

Oncology

Breast masses, the most common tumor in unspayed female pets — surgically removed and biopsied.

Oncology

Chronic anal-sac infection, impaction, or tumors causing scooting and discomfort.

Oncology

Common external and internal parasites prevented and treated to protect pets and households.

Preventive

A serious, mosquito-borne disease that is far easier to prevent than to treat — screening and prevention available.

Preventive

Seizure disorders investigated and controlled with diagnostics and long-term medication management.

Neurology

Herniated spinal discs causing pain, weakness, or paralysis — sometimes requiring decompressive surgery.

Neurology

Cataracts, conjunctivitis, dry eye, and other ocular problems diagnosed and managed or referred.

Ophthalmology

Prolapse of the third-eyelid gland, appearing as a red bulge in the corner of the eye.

Ophthalmology

Inward-rolling eyelids that rub the cornea, causing pain and damage — corrected surgically.

Ophthalmology

Breathing difficulty in flat-faced breeds from narrow nostrils and an overlong soft palate.

Respiratory

Failure of the airway to open properly, causing noisy breathing and exercise intolerance in older dogs.

Respiratory

An undescended testicle that carries a higher cancer risk and should be surgically removed.

Reproductive

A life-threatening uterine infection in unspayed females, treated with emergency spay surgery.

Reproductive

An abnormal vessel routing blood around the liver, causing toxin buildup — often correctable surgically.

Internal Medicine

Fluid backing up into the lungs or abdomen when a diseased heart can no longer pump effectively — managed with diuretics and cardiac medication.

Cardiology

The most common heart disease in dogs — a progressively leaking mitral valve that starts as a murmur and is staged by echocardiogram.

Cardiology

A weakening and enlargement of the heart muscle seen mainly in large breeds, with a possible diet link under FDA investigation.

Cardiology

The most common heart disease in cats — a thickening of the heart muscle that can stay silent until a sudden crisis.

Cardiology

Dangerously high blood pressure in the lung arteries, often secondary to heart or lung disease and diagnosed by echocardiogram.

Cardiology

Abnormal heart rhythms — too fast, too slow, or irregular — evaluated with an ECG and sometimes a Holter monitor.

Cardiology

Heart defects present from birth, such as PDA and pulmonic stenosis, often first detected as a murmur in a young pet.

Cardiology

Sudden fainting or collapse that can signal an arrhythmia or advanced heart disease and warrants prompt cardiac evaluation.

Cardiology

Chronic vomiting, diarrhea, or weight loss from ongoing intestinal inflammation — diagnosed with a workup and biopsy and managed with diet and medication.

Internal Medicine

Elevated liver values or signs of liver dysfunction, investigated with bloodwork, ultrasound, and sometimes biopsy.

Internal Medicine

A low red blood cell count from blood loss, destruction, or reduced production — a sign that calls for a thorough diagnostic search.

Internal Medicine

Coughing, sneezing, and nasal discharge from infections such as kennel cough in dogs and upper respiratory virus in cats.
