Veterinary Oncology in Springfield

A cancer diagnosis in your pet is a frightening experience that can be associated with stress, concern, and anxiety. The Oncology Service at The Regional Veterinary Referral Center is here to help.

For over 15 years, The Oncology Service has provided individualized cancer care, one patient at a time. We truly enjoy getting to know all of our patients and their families and are committed to help you navigate the decision-making process so as to provide the optimal treatment approach for you and your pet.

This process involves the integration of medical, surgical and radiation oncology treatments with palliative measures that collectively improve quality of life. At The Regional Veterinary Referral Center, our team in Medical Oncology is led by Drs. Kathleen Tidd, Heather Wilson-Robles, Chand Khanna and Bridget Stewart. Our doctors work closely Dr. Pamela White, our Leesburg Radiation Oncologist, to provide fully integrated and comprehensive cancer care for your pet and our patient.

Hope and Innovation in Cancer Care

The Oncology Service is uniquely qualified to assess all opportunities to improve outcomes and quality of life for your pet.

As veterinarians who have been specifically trained in treating pets with cancer, it is our only focus. We are devoted to caring for your pet with cancer in every way possible. Based on our training, experience, and devotion to innovation we have access to more treatment options than anywhere else.

These treatments include conventional chemotherapy, small molecule inhibitors, cancer vaccines, radiation therapy, surgery, and more. We are also able to deliver new treatment options through clinical trials supported by our unique relationship with Animal Clinical Investigation (www.animalci.com) and Ethos Discovery (www.ethosdiscovery.org).

Staging & Treatment Options

After a diagnosis of cancer, additional diagnostic testing can help to determine the extent of cancer in the body, which allows us to optimize treatment options and better predict prognosis.

When staging is complete, our team of specialists will discuss all the appropriate treatment options. Cancer can be treated by several different therapies or combinations of treatments.
