Veterinary Cardiology Services in Newtown
Just like humans, pets can develop heart disease, which may be congenital (present at birth) or acquired later in life. Veterinary cardiology focuses on diagnosing and treating heart and circulatory system conditions in animals.
Common heart problems in pets include heart murmurs, arrhythmias, heart failure, and valvular diseases. If left untreated, these conditions can lead to severe health complications, which is why early diagnosis and intervention are essential.
At Newtown Veterinary Specialists, we are proud to offer expert veterinary cardiology services to help diagnose, treat, and manage heart conditions in dogs and cats. Our skilled team, led by a residency trained veterinary cardiologist, uses advanced treatment options to provide the best care for your pet’s heart health.
Meet Our Team
A veterinary cardiologist is a specialist with advanced training in the heart and circulatory system. To become a veterinary cardiologist, a veterinarian usually completes a one-year internship followed by extensive specialized training in an approved residency training program that usually takes 3-5 years to complete.
Dr. Rucinski will be starting on January 6th.
