Cardiology

If your pet is suspected to be suffering from heart or circulatory system disease, they will be referred to our Cardiology team.

Cardiac problems are often identified in general practice but benefit from specialist expertise to fully evaluate the underlying causes and provide owners with accurate prognostic advice.

Our cardiology service can investigate and treat a wide range of conditions including:

• Arrhythmia – abnormal heart rhythm, skipped beats, missed beats
• Cardiomyopathy
• Fainting – collapse, dizzy spells, syncope
• Congenital heart disease
• Heart failure
• Heart tumours – cancer
• Holter monitor fitting
• Pericardial effusion – cardiac tamponade
• Heart murmurs
• PDA – patent ductus arteriosus
• Poor exercise tolerance
• Breathing problems
• Pulmonary hypertension
