Cancer Treatment & Chemotherapy
Comprehensive Cancer Treatment & Chemotherapy for Pets in Andover, Wichita, and Central Kansas
At Kutter Pet Care Center, we understand the gravity of a cancer diagnosis for your beloved pets. With our advanced diagnostics including ultrasound, radiographs, and blood work, coupled with expert chemotherapy services, we provide comprehensive cancer care for dogs and cats in Andover, Wichita, and the surrounding central Kansas region.
Accurate Diagnosis for Effective Treatment
Pets, like humans, can suffer from various types of cancer, each requiring precise diagnosis for tailored treatment. Our facility boasts state-of-the-art diagnostic capabilities and a team of experienced veterinarians who stay abreast of the latest advancements in cancer treatment.
Tailored Treatment Options
Depending on the type and stage of cancer, we offer a range of treatment options. While some cancers can be surgically removed with a high chance of complete recovery, others may require chemotherapy to manage symptoms and improve quality of life.
Understanding Chemotherapy for Pets
Chemotherapy might sound daunting, but for pets, it’s often a manageable and positive experience. Unlike in humans, pets rarely experience common chemotherapy side effects like hair loss or severe illness. Most pets tolerate treatment well, with minimal discomfort and stress.
Our Approach to Chemotherapy
Our goal with chemotherapy is to enhance your pet’s quality of life. Many pets can achieve remission, where cancer regresses, and they return to a normal, healthy life. The duration of remission varies depending on factors like cancer type and treatment response, but significant periods of remission are possible, lasting months or even years.
Expertise and Compassionate Care
Dr. Lynn Mork, our lead oncologist, has a personal passion for cancer medicine, sparked by her own pet’s lymphoma diagnosis. With extensive experience in veterinary oncology and pharmaceutical research, Dr. Mork brings a wealth of knowledge and compassion to every case.
Advanced Diagnostic Imaging
In addition to chemotherapy, our facility offers advanced diagnostic imaging services like ultrasound. Ultrasound imaging provides real-time visualization of internal organs, aiding in the diagnosis of various conditions including pancreatitis, kidney stones, and tumors. This non-invasive procedure is quick, minimally stressful for pets, and plays a crucial role in our diagnostic approach.
