What Does a Veterinary Oncologist Do?
One of the most upsetting pieces of information that a pet owner can receive is that her dog or cat has cancer. In past decades, a cancer diagnosis meant putting the furry companion to sleep or euthanizing it. However, a veterinary oncologist can offer a pet owner the opportunity to lessen or even stop the animal’s pain and suffering and lengthen the survival period. In addition, there are many cases where the veterinary oncologist can completely treat and cure the pet’s cancer. As a result, understanding what a veterinary oncologist does is important for all pet owners.
