Our Internal Medicine team are the detectives who work to establish a diagnosis. Once we understand your pet’s illness, we can then discuss options and tailor a treatment plan to your pet’s individual needs. Typically, after an initial consultation, a patient will be admitted for further investigation, such as blood tests, radiographs, ultrasound or endoscopy. After the tests, unless immediate additional treatment is needed, animals may go home to await results. Sometimes, if a patient is found to have a non-medical disease and, for example, needs surgery or cancer treatment, they may be transferred to another team within the hospital.
