Internal Medicine

Any systemic condition that might affect your pet’s general health is a matter of internal medicine which our vets will address. Various pathological disorders related to animals’ gastrointestinal system, cardio-respiratory, urogenital, musculoskeletal, and neurological system or skin or eye problems need a meticulous approach that can sometimes be simple but often requires further diagnostic tests or a referral to one of our specialists.

It can often be challenging to diagnose some of your pet’s medical conditions. Certain such illnesses require more advanced diagnostics and management, may not be responding to conventional treatments or may be a rare disease that can be difficult to treat. In these situations, your pet may need to be evaluated by certified specialists who could adequately assess your pet’s diagnosis and treatment management. The City Vet Clinic is home to internal medicine specialists ready to help with any complex cases. Our team is dedicated to caring for dogs and cats, birds, and pocket animals with chronic and life-threatening illnesses. Our specialists also collaborate with other team members with specialties in cardiology, surgery, clinical pathology, pet emergency, and critical care within our organization to arrive at a diagnosis and create a comprehensive and correct treatment plan.
