Internal Medicine is accessible for case consultation and updates 6 days a week. This ensures that all hospitalized pets receive seamless monitoring and care. Our internal medicine specialists have advanced knowledge of small animal gastroenterology, endocrinology, immune-mediated and infectious disease, diseases of the kidney and lower urinary tract as well as respiratory disease.
