Internal Medicine

Overview

Our internal medicine department excels in diagnosing and treating complex medical problems that involve multiple body systems. Through our advanced service and diagnostic resources, we can build on the care that your referring veterinarian began. Our board-certified internal medicine specialists are highly trained in endocrinology, gastroenterology, hematology, immunology, infectious diseases, nephrology/urology and respiratory disease.

In addition to our training and technology, one of our greatest medical tools is communication—we believe in collaborating with your primary veterinarian every step of the way. We’ll work together to seek a diagnosis, second opinions and/or management of acute and chronic diseases. Our internist also consults with other specialists within our practice, including surgeons, oncologists and emergency care veterinarians. We’ll do everything possible for your pet’s health, and for your peace of mind.
