Chemotherapy

At Robertsdale Animal Clinic, we understand that your furry companion is not just a pet, but a beloved member of your family. The mutual bond of love between you can make the diagnosis of any form of cancer very difficult to hear.

Fortunately, the treatment of cancer in veterinary medicine has been greatly improved in recent years and safe, effective medications have been developed giving your pet the greatest opportunity for recovery. Treatments for cancer include surgery, chemotherapy, radiation or any combination of the three. Using his experience, Dr. Moore will evaluate your pet to determine the best treatment for a positive outcome. In addition to surgery, we can offer our patients access to chemotherapy drugs that can slow the growth and kill cancer cells causing tumors and impeding organ function. When used early in cancer disease, chemotherapy is often very successful in eradicating cancerous cells in your pet’s body.
