Mass Removal for Pets
If your pet has developed a lump or bump, look to Heron Lakes Animal Hospital for reliable diagnosis and safe, quick treatment. Our mass removal service is designed to assess and remove masses for your furry friend’s lasting well-being.
What is Mass Removal?
Mass Removal is a surgical procedure aimed at extracting abnormal growths, such as lumps or tumors, from your pet’s body. These masses can be benign (non-cancerous) or malignant (cancerous). Our skilled veterinary team will evaluate the mass, determine its nature, and perform the removal with utmost care.
Benefits of Mass Removal
• Early detection and removal can prevent the mass from growing or spreading
• Improves your pet’s comfort and quality of life
• Allows for a biopsy to determine if the mass is cancerous
• Reduces the risk of complications or further health issues
• Peace of mind for pet owners knowing their pet is receiving the best care
Is My Pet a Candidate?
If your pet has developed a new lump or bump, or an existing mass has changed in size, shape, or texture, they may be a candidate for Mass Removal. It’s essential to schedule an appointment for an evaluation, especially if the mass is causing discomfort or affecting your pet’s behavior. Our veterinary team will conduct a thorough examination and discuss the best course of action for your pet.
