 Chemotherapy
At Manchester West, our
veterinarians are skilled at the
diagnosis and treatment of many
different types of cancers
including Lymphoma (lymph node
cancer) mast cell tumors (skin
cancer), sarcoma (bone/liver
cancer for example), melanoma
(oral cancer), carcinoma (kidney
cancer for example), and hemangiosarcoma (cancer of the
spleen). Diagnostic procedures
can include fine needle aspirate
and cell cytology, bloodwork,
radiographs, ultrasound or even
tumor biopsies and off-site
tissue evaluation by a board
certified oncologist. Once a
diagnosis has been made, our
doctors will develop an
individualized treatment plan
that may include a surgical
procedure to remove the tumor,
or chemotherapy, or both. At
Manchester West, our
veterinarians and technicians
are well-versed in many
chemotherapy protocols including
the widely used
Wisconsin
Madison Protocol for Lymphoma.
We also maintain a close
relationship with the
University
of Missouri College of
Veterinary Medicine’s Board
Certified Oncologist for
guidance or referral. Not all
private veterinary hospitals are
capable of chemotherapy as a
treatment option for their
patients. Our doctors and
technicians have training and
experience in the administering
of chemotherapy drugs,
monitoring and aftercare for
chemotherapy patients. But,
because we are not a specialty
practice or a teaching
institution, we are able to
offer these types of advanced
treatment therapies at more
affordable prices.
