We utilize evidence based medical treatments to manage cancer and improve vitality.
Comprehensive Protocols: We offer “Gold Standard treatments” such as the CHOP protocol for lymphoma.
Targeted Therapies: We utilize single agent chemotherapy when a more focused approach is required for your pet’s specific needs.
Metronomic Care: This involves low dose, frequent medication that targets the blood supply of a tumor to maintain stability of the disease and quality of life.

We believe that the presence of a family member is the best medicine for a pet’s anxiety. We do not utilize drop-off appointments. We invite and encourage you to sit or lay with your pet while they receive their treatment.
Arrival and Exam: Your appointment begins with a physical exam and blood work. You will remain with your pet during this time. We will remove your pet in order to draw the required labs but as soon as we are finished we will return him/her to you.
Comfortable Environment: Most treatments are relatively quick. If a visit requires more time, you are welcome to bring a laptop and connect to the guest Wi-Fi.
