Cancer Surgery
Any cancer diagnosis is heartbreaking. At The Vet Clinic, we do everything we can to remove the cancer and extend or improve the quality of life for your pet. All our services are provided under one roof for your convenience.
Skin masses are a type of cancer that often affects our pets. When caught early they can be successfully treated.
Splenic tumours are often seen in older dogs, usually beginning as a large mass within the liver or spleen before spreading rapidly.
FAQ's
Though not all cancers are malignant, we thoroughly examine each tumour or mass to determine the best course of action. Removal of the cancer is often recommended, as this can reduce further risks and curb any pain your pet may be experiencing.
If your pet has Osteosarcoma, then amputation is often the ideal solution to decrease the likelihood of further spreading – and to quickly control the pain. Thankfully, most pets adjust to amputation remarkably well, and are often already able to walk out of our hospital without assistance, only a few days after surgery.
We work closely with you to ensure you can have as long as possible with your pet following treatment, allowing you to make many more precious memories. Ongoing treatment plans will be unique to you and your pet.
