I’m Inoue, in charge of the oncology department. In recent years, the lifespan of dogs and cats has increased, and tumors, which are more likely to occur as they get older, just like in humans, are one of the leading causes of death in dogs and cats. In recent years, diagnosis and treatment at the same level as medicine have become possible. We can provide various treatment options other than standard tumor treatments (surgery, radiation, and anticancer drugs) and standard treatments, so please feel free to contact us if you are having trouble with a tumor.
