WHAT WE DO

We know that your pet is an important member of your family, and it can be especially scary to learn that your pet has heart disease. Our mission is to provide the highest level of cardiac care for pets and their owners in an easily accessible manner through collaboration with family veterinarians. We bring our equipment and expertise directly to your local veterinary clinic – this minimizes long and stressful car rides for you and your pet! We value the trust placed in us – we will treat your pet with the same level of care and compassion as if they were our own.

 

Dr. Jones uses the latest technology to perform a thorough assessment of the cardiovascular system in pets. Diagnostic tests commonly performed by Dr. Jones include echocardiograms (ultrasound of the heart), electrocardiograms (ECG/EKG) and Holter monitors (24-hour ECG). Thoracic radiographs (chest x-rays) and assessment of blood pressure may also be indicated. Dr. Jones draws on her extensive training and experience to integrate results from these various tests to provide an accurate and efficient diagnosis, with personalized treatment recommendations for each patient.

We currently service the Niagara, Hamilton, Burlington and Tri-Cities regions, but consultations can be arranged in other locations.

If you would like to have Dr. Jones evaluate your pet’s heart, please contact your family veterinarian to inquire about availability. We are unfortunately not able to provide information directly to pet owners over the phone or by email, but we would be honoured to be a part of the healthcare team for your pet through collaboration with your trusted veterinarian. Your veterinarian will also be able to provide you with a cost estimate, as this can vary depending on which tests are needed to complete the cardiac evaluation.
