Cardiology

Veterinary cardiology focuses on diagnosing and treating heart conditions in pets. Our pet cardiology services are led by a specialist or consultant who uses advanced diagnostics such as ECGs, echocardiograms (insert link to ultrasound service), X-rays (insert link to x-ray service), blood tests (insert link to blood testing service), and blood pressure (insert link to blood pressure service) to assess heart health in pets.

A cardiology consultation may be recommended if your pet shows signs such as coughing, difficulty breathing, reduced exercise tolerance, fainting, or if a heart condition is suspected during a routine examination. Early referral to a cardiologist can help ensure prompt diagnosis and appropriate management.

Cardiology investigations may include ECG (electrocardiogram), echocardiogram (heart ultrasound (insert link to ultrasound service)), X-rays (insert link to x-ray service), blood pressure measurement (insert link to blood pressure service), and blood tests (insert link to blood testing service). These tools help provide a comprehensive assessment of your pet’s heart and overall health.

Treatment options may include medication, dietary changes, and lifestyle adjustments. In some cases, surgery or more advanced interventions may be considered. Your veterinary cardiologist will create a tailored treatment plan based on your pet’s specific condition.
