Cardiology

Pet Cardiology with our Veterinarian in Rancho Cucamonga Heart problems are some of the most common health conditions affecting cats and dogs. At Alta Rancho Pet & Bird Hospital, we provide comprehensive cardiac care for pets in Rancho Cucamonga, Claremont, Alta Loma, Ontario, Upland, and the Inland Empire in CA. Thanks to recent advances in cardiology and veterinary medicine, our veterinarians use high-tech diagnostics including echocardiography (with color and spectral doppler evaluation), electrocardiography (ECG), Doppler blood pressure measurements, and digital radiography (X-rays) to detect, diagnose, and monitor heart disease in pets. Our detailed approach also covers the diagnosis and treatment of common heart conditions such as arrhythmia and congestive heart failure. For arrhythmia, we use electrocardiograms and sometimes echocardiograms to assess abnormal heart rhythms and determine appropriate medication. In cases of congestive heart failure, we evaluate the condition via physical examinations, chest radiographs, and echocardiography to provide treatments that reduce fluid buildup and improve heart function. Dr. Reid Shufer and Dr. Kathy Henderson are seasoned professionals in cardiac care, offering local echocardiography with dual interpretation by a board certified cardiologist to ensure accurate diagnosis and effective treatment plans.
