Heart disease is a common concern in pets, particularly as they age. Early detection and proper management are key to prolonging a good quality of life. WellPet’s cardiology service is dedicated to the diagnosis and treatment of diseases affecting the heart and circulatory system. Using advanced diagnostic tools, we can identify heart conditions early and create effective management plans to help your pet live a more comfortable and active life.

The cornerstone of our cardiology service is the echocardiogram, a detailed ultrasound of the heart. This non-invasive procedure allows us to see the heart’s chambers, valves, and muscle function in real-time, measuring its size and strength and assessing blood flow. This is far more detailed than what can be learned from a stethoscope alone. We also utilize digital X-ray to evaluate the size and shape of the heart and lungs. Common conditions we manage include congestive heart failure, valvular disease, and cardiomyopathy.

If your pet has a heart murmur, is coughing, lethargic, or has difficulty breathing, a cardiology consultation is recommended. Our compassionate approach ensures we not only treat the disease but also support you, the owner, with clear communication and guidance. With expert cardiology care, many pets with heart disease can enjoy many happy years with their families.
