Internal Medicine is a specialty branch of veterinary medicine involving the treatment and management of more complex conditions affecting pets’ internal organs that often coincide with chronic illnesses. Conditions that cannot be effectively managed by your family veterinarian alone will often receive a consult or be referred to an internal medicine specialist to receive a second opinion or to pursue more advanced care options.
Learn More About Internal MedicineRadiation therapy is a precise tumor treatment that can be achieved in as little as a week. It may be used in combination with surgery or chemotherapy, but can also be an option when a tumor can’t be removed or involves vital structures.
Our radiation equipment is extremely precise and moves to achieve the best treatment angles. This precision also minimizes damage to normal tissues, making side effects less common. Our goal is to achieve remission, slow cancer growth, and prevent local recurrence of cancer.
Types of radiation are chosen based on a variety of factors, such as:
- Tumor type
- Tumor location
- Tumor size
- Cancer spreading to other parts of the body
- Pet owners’ situations and preferences
PetCure Oncology, part of the Thrive Pet Healthcare community, helps pets fight cancer with advanced technology, veterinary oncology specialists, and true compassion.

While some surgeries are available through your primary care hospital, some advanced or complex procedures require advanced skills, training, intensive care before or after surgery, and specialized equipment. Similar to the training for human medical doctors, veterinarians can choose to do additional training, publish research, and take an exam to achieve “board certification” in an area of expertise. Our specialty teams work closely with your primary care veterinarian to ensure an exceptional experience for you and your pet.
Learn More About Specialty SurgeryOur medical veterinary oncologists are here to support you and your pet throughout their journey. Our goal is to educate you on your pet's diagnosis and provide up-to-date information on available treatment options. Their key focus is always on your pet’s quality of life. Forms of medical oncology treatment can include chemotherapy, immunotherapy, personalized medicine such as targeted therapy and tumor vaccines, and novel therapy trials.
Learn More About Medical Oncology Cardiology is a branch of veterinary medicine concerned with diagnosing, treating, and managing conditions related to the heart. This includes a pet’s blood vessels, circulatory system, and sometimes their lungs.
The heart is one of your pet’s most essential organs, continually pumping blood containing oxygen and nutrients to the rest of the body. In most heart-related problems, either damage or deterioration occurs to either the heart valves or heart muscles.
No matter what type of heart problems your pet may have during their life, our Primary, Specialty, and Emergency Care teams have the skills and resources to help your pet have the highest quality of life possible through treatment and hands-on management.
Learn More About CardiologyAdvanced imaging uses the latest technology to help diagnose specific health conditions in pets. Based on your pet’s symptoms, our veterinarians may recommend a particular type of imaging that will take a closer look at problem areas, such as X-rays (radiographs), ultrasound, echocardiogram, MRI, CT scan, and more.
