Advanced cancer care and veterinary expertise you can trust.
We understand that seeing your pet experience unusual symptoms or act out of the ordinary can be stressful – especially if you don’t know what’s wrong. Fortunately, our veterinary oncology team is made up of experts in diagnosing and treating cancer, and we’re here to help.
Our commitment is not just to treat illnesses; it’s to enhance the well-being of your pet and be with you every step of the way.
If your pet has cancer, you’ll have an entire oncology team helping to improve your pet’s quality of life so you can get back to what matters most – spending precious moments together.
Your pet will receive unparalleled medical care during their time at the hospital (and they’ll be spoiled with love and attention, too).
Your pet can’t tell us what’s wrong, so we use sophisticated diagnostics and imaging tools to uncover the source of the problem.
Just as no two patients are the same, neither are their treatment plans. Our oncology team has experience with a range of advanced procedures and minimally invasive options to get your pet on the path to wellness, including:
Experience makes all the difference.
Our oncology team is made up of veterinarians, vet technicians and assistants, and support staff with rigorous training and experience in specialty medicine. The team works hand in hand to provide the comprehensive, compassionate care your pet needs and deserves. Because we’re a multidisciplinary hospital, the team can consult the expertise of other specialty departments, too.
Staying active in his field as a manuscript reviewer, Dr. John Farrelly has also chaired therapy groups, reviewed certification exams, instructed at Cornell University and, as a consultant, provided biostatistics services for veterinarians.
Although there are a number of tumors that are challenging to treat, Dr. Farrelly finds nasal tumors fascinating because they are surrounded by critical structures like the eyes and brain. In the past, treatment of these tumors often came with devastating side effects, but after watching and working with advances in technology, he is now able to provide more rewarding treatment plans for patients.
Married to his high school sweetheart, Dr. Farrelly and his wife have four children. The family enjoys music and sports like skiing and snowboarding. When time allows, Dr. Farrelly sings in his church choir and plays the bagpipes. The four-legged members of the family include Rockefella, a loveable pup, and Jasper, the cat.
Dr. Tim Rocha is interested in all areas of medical oncology, particularly lymphoma.
Dr. Rocha is married to a veterinarian and enjoys spending time with his large family, which includes many people and several dogs and cats.
