At East End Veterinary Center, our board-certified veterinary cardiologist specializes in diagnosing and treating diseases of the heart and lungs in dogs and cats. We provide advanced cardiac diagnostics, tailored treatment plans, and compassionate care to support your pet’s long-term health and comfort.
