Cardiology

Cardiology is the branch of veterinary medicine that treats diseases of the cardiovascular system, which includes the heart and blood vessels. This encompasses such problems as congestive heart failure, hypertension, dilated and hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, heart arrhythmias and valvular disorders. Because the function of the heart and lungs are interrelated, our veterinarians are also knowledgeable about lung disease as well as disorders of the chest cavity.

If our veterinarians feel your pet has a more advanced condition, they may recommend a referral to a veterinary cardiologist.
