Veterinary Cardiologists
If you have a heart problem, you might need to see a cardiologist. It’s the same in the animal world. If your pet has a heart issue, your local vet may refer you to a BluePearl veterinary cardiologist. They’re experts in caring for the heart health of our furry friends.
Our pet cardiologists know all about your pet’s circulatory system: the heart muscle, valves and blood vessels. They also know what to do when things go wrong.
Conditions we treat:
- Enlarged heart
Congestive heart failure (dogs & cats)
Congenital heart defects
High blood pressure
Irregular heartbeat (arrhythmia)
Feline blood clot disorders
