Comprehensive Veterinary Cancer Care at Wheat Ridge Animal Hospital
At Wheat Ridge Animal Hospital, we understand that your pets are beloved family members. When a pet receives a cancer diagnosis, it can be a daunting and emotionally challenging experience. The Veterinary Cancer Care team at Wheat Ridge will work with you and your primary care veterinarian to provide the comprehensive care your pet needs. We offer all aspects of advanced cancer treatment and work together to provide the best outcomes for all our patients.
Our mission is to provide the highest quality of veterinary cancer care with compassion and expertise. We are dedicated to enhancing the lives of pets and their families through cutting-edge treatments, support, and education.
At Wheat Ridge Animal Hospital, we offer a comprehensive oncology care team consisting of medical, radiation, and surgical oncologists who all work together to ensure the best treatment plan for you and your pet. This interdisciplinary approach ensures the most effective care for each patient.
Our team of three board-certified medical oncologists have combined over 30 years of experience in diagnosing and treating cancer in pets. Their passion for helping pets and their families through this difficult journey is evident in their commitment to staying at the forefront of veterinary oncology advancements. The medical oncology team works to diagnose and stage cancer to provide the best understanding of a patient’s current clinic picture. We then work with the family to determine the best course of treatment and provide therapies such as chemotherapy, immunotherapy, and targeted therapies when appropriate.
Our Radiation Oncology service offers expertise in the treatment of cancer and works collaboratively with our medical and surgical oncology teams. We work with you to understand your goals surrounding diagnosis and treatment of cancer in your pet and provide you with information regarding specific cancer processes. Finally, working with you as a team, we establish the best diagnostic and treatment plan for your pet. When radiation is elected, Dr. Swift creates a custom treatment plan for each patient with special attention to individual treatment goals.
