Veterinary Oncology

Advanced Cancer Care for La Mesa Pets

Rancho Village Veterinary Hospital is committed to providing world-class care to our patients and the people who love them following a cancer diagnosis. We work closely with oncology specialists and prioritize transparency through open discussions with our clients.

After reviewing your pet’s medical history and diagnosis we will sit down with you and your pet to discuss the disease, staging (additional diagnostics), treatment options, and prognosis. 

Staging

After a diagnosis of cancer, additional diagnostic testing can help to determine the extent of cancer in the body, which allows us to optimize treatment options and better predict prognosis.

Treatment Options

When staging is complete, our team of oncology specialists will discuss all the appropriate treatment options. Cancer can be treated by several therapies or combinations of treatments including surgery, chemotherapy, radiation therapy, immunotherapy, targeted therapies, or palliative care when appropriate.
