Our Services

The Cardiology and Interventional Medicine Service at The Ohio State University Veterinary Medical Center offers state-of-the-art diagnostic evaluation and therapy of animals with cardiovascular disease, respiratory disorders, or those requiring minimally-invasive treatment options.

Heart disease is a common problem in all species. Our specialists are board-certified in the American College of Veterinary Internal Medicine, and have extensive training in the diagnosis and care of heart problems in dogs, cats, horses, cattle, birds and more. We also treat dogs and cats with respiratory disorders, whose signs are often similar to animals suffering from cardiovascular disease. Your pet will be well cared for by our medical teams, who evaluate animals based upon a thorough physical examination and a discussion of their medical history, followed by additional tests when needed. These may include:

Many heart problems are manageable with medication for months to years, providing a comfortable life for your pet and giving him or her more time with your family.

Interventional medicine is a newer specialty in veterinary medicine that allows minimally-invasive surgical treatments to patients, thereby reducing pain and shortening recovery time. Therapies are delivered through small incisions, and are guided by advanced imaging techniques. While originally developed to treat heart disease, rapid advancement of these methods has allowed for their application to diseases of all body systems. Some common procedures include:

We frequently consult with top human physicians to apply the newest treatment options available in human medicine to the care of animals. If you feel your pet may benefit from interventional medicine, a consultation can be scheduled with our cardiology service by calling 614-292-3551.
