Just as in humans, a pet with cancer often benefits from the help of an oncologist to help diagnose and treat the disease. Veterinary medical oncologists determine the most appropriate course of treatment and coordinate the treatment program for pets with cancer. Our medical oncologist, Dr. Dianna Saam, is committed to ensuring your pet receives the highest standard of medical care. The goal of therapy is to extend both the quantity and quality of lifespan for pets with cancer. In addition, to Dr. Saam’s expertise and experience managing pets with cancer we are able to offer diagnostic tools such as ultrasound, CT and MRI that help Dr. Saam more specifically determine the prognosis and the most suitable treatment options.

Early detection, specialized care and ongoing medical advances are helping to increase survival and cure rates in almost all the types of cancers that affect pets. From surgery to chemotherapy to radiation therapy to immunotherapy, veterinary cancer specialists can offer your pet the very latest diagnostic and treatment options and the best chance for survival with an excellent quality of life. With optimal treatment, some cancers may become another manageable chronic disease.
