When it comes to your pet’s health, early detection and specialized care can make all the difference. At South Dixie Animal Hospital, we offer Internal Medicine Consultations to diagnose and treat complex medical conditions affecting pets. Whether your furry companion is experiencing chronic illness, unexplained symptoms, or a decline in overall health, our team is here to provide expert care tailored to their unique needs.

What is an Internal Medicine Consultation?

Internal medicine focuses on diagnosing and managing diseases that affect internal organ systems. Unlike routine check-ups, an internal medicine consultation is designed for pets experiencing persistent or severe symptoms that require advanced medical attention.

Our experienced veterinarians conduct thorough evaluations, diagnostic testing, and treatment planning to address conditions related to:
✅ Gastrointestinal Disorders – Chronic vomiting, diarrhea, weight loss, or bloating
✅ Endocrine Disorders – Diabetes, thyroid disease, Cushing’s disease, Addison’s disease
✅ Respiratory Conditions – Chronic coughing, breathing difficulties, asthma
✅ Cardiovascular Issues – Heart murmurs, arrhythmias, congestive heart failure
✅ Kidney & Liver Diseases – Kidney failure, liver infections, jaundice
✅ Immune-Mediated Diseases – Autoimmune disorders affecting organ function
✅ Blood Disorders – Anemia, clotting disorders, white blood cell abnormalities
✅ Infectious Diseases – Lyme disease, feline leukemia, FIV, parasitic infections

What to Expect During an Internal Medicine Consultation

At South Dixie Animal Hospital, we take a comprehensive approach to diagnosing and treating your pet’s medical condition.

1️⃣ Detailed Medical History & Symptom Review
We begin by discussing any signs or symptoms you’ve noticed, including changes in appetite, energy levels, or behavior.

2️⃣ Physical Examination
A complete head-to-tail assessment helps us evaluate your pet’s vital signs, organ function, and any external signs of illness.

3️⃣ Advanced Diagnostic Testing (If Needed)
Depending on the condition, we may recommend blood tests, urinalysis, digital X-rays, ultrasound, or biopsies to get a deeper look at what’s affecting your pet’s health.

4️⃣ Personalized Treatment Plan
Once we reach a diagnosis, we develop a customized treatment plan which may include:
✔️ Medications (anti-inflammatory, antibiotics, hormone therapy)
✔️ Dietary adjustments and nutritional support
✔️ Long-term disease management strategies
✔️ Additional specialized testing or referrals if necessary
