Cancer Treatment
Navigating cancer care
We understand that with longer pet lifespans comes a greater risk of age-related diseases like cancer, which is now the leading concern among pet owners. Cancer manifests with symptoms like lumps, abnormal bleeding, or sudden weight loss, causing distress for pet owners who fear for their pet's health.
Cancer can affect all pets
Cancer can impact pets of all species, whether they're bunnies, dogs, or cats. At Drovers Vet, we provide this service for all pets diagnosed with cancer, offering personalised treatment plans that prioritise their well-being.
Supporting your pets through advanced care
Led by Dr. Wayne Shipham, who brings over a decade of expertise in veterinary oncology, we are equipped to offer top-tier cancer diagnostics and treatments. We offer specialised surgical techniques for cancerous growths. This expertise ensures precise and effective removal of cancerous tumours, providing peace of mind to pet owners during a challenging time. Our approach focuses on compassionate care and minimises chemotherapy side effects for pets.
What is the process?
Diagnosing and caring for pets with cancer at Drovers Vet involves a thorough process designed to ensure the best possible outcomes. Beginning with comprehensive cancer staging, which includes biopsies, cytology, ultrasound, and digital radiology, we meticulously assess the extent and nature of the disease.
This thorough evaluation allows us to tailor a treatment plan that meets your pet's specific needs. Our approach to chemotherapy utilises cutting-edge techniques and medications, aimed not only at treating the cancer but also at maintaining your pet's quality of life. Throughout this journey, we prioritise effective and empathetic care, supporting both you and your pet every step of the way.
