Are you currently treating most of your cancer patients with prednisone and tramadol? Would you like to offer more step-by-step guidance? Read below to see how we can help.

Remote Consultations

Hope Veterinary Oncology services is proud to provide nationwide remote consultations to general practitioners anywhere and everywhere, caring for pets with cancer who do not have direct access to a veterinary oncologist.

HVOS brings veterinary cancer treatment to the patient in our state-of-the-art mobile oncology unit. We want to help you and your patients by providing detailed cancer treatment plans based on the latest scientific research and technologies.

You may be surprised to know that only half of our patients are currently receiving traditional intravenous chemotherapy. The other half are treated with oral chemotherapy, targeted therapy, immunotherapies, nutritional support, pain management, and supplements. Dr. Rizzo can help you do the same via detailed written guidance with recommendations and responses to specific questions. We can also chat via zoom if you like.
