Virtual Veterinary Specialists’ Post

The results have come back from the laboratory and confirmed the mass is malignant, as you suspected. Now you want to lay out all the possible options for the owner to decide what to do next. Would surgical resection alone be curative, or should you be advising chemotherapy, or both? What are the survival times on all of these options? If the owners choose to go down the route of palliative care, what would this likely look like? It’s a big decision, and there are often no right or wrong answers. ❤️ We can support you in practice, by offering an advice call with our oncology specialist to discuss case management and next steps. We even offer a specialist and owner teleconsultation in which the owners can attend alongside yourself if you would prefer. If you decide chemotherapy is the best option, then we can help with a protocol tailored to the individual patient, and can provide follow-up support too. Email us at info@vvs.vet for more details on getting support with oncology cases. www.vvs.vet #VVS #VirtualVeterinarySpecialists #VeterinaryPractice #VetSkills #VeterinarySurgeon #VeterinaryNurse #VeterinaryCare #AnimalHealth #Oncology #VeterinaryOncology #CaseStudies
