General Medicine
When your pet is injured or not feeling well, we know you want the very best medical treatment for your pet. West U Veterinary is equipped with state-of-the-art medical equipment and the expertise to treat your pet for most medical conditions.
We will help you find the answers to your pet’s medical conditions and improve your pet’s quality of life. You, the pet owner, are important in diagnosing, treating and monitoring any health condition your pet may have.
Monitored Care of Chronic Conditions
If your pet has been diagnosed with a chronic condition we will perform the routine monitoring that is needed to keep your pet healthy. Commonly diagnosed chronic medical conditions such as diabetes, kidney disease, liver disease and thyroid disease can be treated with the most current medical or surgical protocols.
We can make diet recommendations, recommend changes in medications and treatments, recommend a monitoring schedule, and also refer your pet to the appropriate specialty service if your pet’s condition changes or your pet is not responding appropriately to the treatments.
