Cardiology

Thanks to advances in veterinary medicine over the past few decades, our four-legged family members are now able to enjoy longer, happier, and more fulfilling lives. Because of this, however, older pets are also more susceptible to many of the illnesses and ailments commonly associated with old age, including heart disease. The good news is, with the right approach, we can identify and manage these conditions to improve the prognosis for your companion.

Heron Lakes Animal Hospital offers professional cardiology services to specifically address the heart health of our patients. We have access to advanced equipment, which we can use to evaluate your pet’s entire cardiovascular system. This testing enables us to identify and diagnose a wide variety of medical concerns, many of which do not produce obvious outward symptoms. This is why regular visits to the vet are so important. If caught early, most heart problems can be managed in a way that allows your pet to enjoy a normal, active life.

Should our thorough diagnostic testing uncover a potential heart problem that requires the further treatment of a veterinary cardiologist, we would be happy to provide a referral. We’ll also work closely with any specialist that we recommend, ensuring that your companion receives consistent, quality care every step of the way. 

If you are concerned that your pet may be experiencing a heart problem, don’t take chances. Contact the experienced professionals at Heron Lakes Animal Hospital right away to schedule a comprehensive evaluation.
