Treating the heart of the matter – to help your pet live a longer and better life.
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 cardiology team is made up of experts in diagnosing and treating diseases of the heart, 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 a cardiovascular condition, you’ll have an entire cardiology 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.
Experience makes all the difference.
Our cardiology 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.
Dr. Sarah Achen is particularly interested in acute and chronic heart failure therapy, management of arrhythmias, and interventional cardiology, including transvenous pacemaker therapy and non-invasive treatment of congenital heart disease. She is experienced in treating myocardial (heart muscle) heart disease, including hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM), dilated cardiomyopathy, arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy, infectious/inflammatory myocarditis, and more. She also enjoys clinical research and teaching.
Dr. Achen spends her off duty time chasing after her two young boys with her husband. She enjoys traveling with her family, decorating cakes and exercising. She has a golden retriever named Dori and an orange tabby cat named Bubaloo.
We want you to be prepared for your pet’s visit to the cardiologist, so you have one less thing to worry about. Our entire BluePearl team will be with you every step of the way.
