For Veterinarians

Save More Lives Every Day

“I’m sorry, there’s nothing more we can do for your pet.” You don’t want to say it; your pet families definitely don’t want to hear it. Thankfully, the emergence of stereotactic radiation (SRS/SRT) has changed the conversation when it comes to cancer care for pets. Our goal at PetCure Oncology is to work closely with you to offer your clients every available option for managing—and potentially even overcoming—their pet’s cancer.

Our partnerships in each market offer the ability to provide a comprehensive range of treatment modalities. That enables our clinical teams to develop individualized patient care plans with every treatment option at their disposal. Sometimes that involves radiation therapy and sometimes it does not, but it always means the best possible care for your patients.

Now if we can target a tumor, we can treat it
Working Together (What To Expect)

Our goal is to support your practice and work as a team to offer your clients and patients the safest, most effective and least disruptive treatment possible—whether that’s SRS or another cancer-fighting option. In some cases, that means a veterinarian will refer the case management entirely to PetCure Oncology. Other times, a veterinarian may choose to do initial diagnostics and post-treatment follow-up care at their practice, referring out only for the treatment itself. Most cases fall somewhere in between. We are here to fill whatever role you need to provide your clients with the best cancer care possible.

If you are a primary care veterinarian, know that our local partnerships offer board-certified expertise in radiation oncology, in addition to a wide range of specialty services, as part of our comprehensive cancer care. If you are a specialist, we want to offer our support as a tertiary care facility, enabling you to provide your clients with every available resource for truly comprehensive cancer care. Either way, our intention is to work with you and supplement your existing cancer care to improve the lives of pets and their families.

When To Make A Referral For SRS

We understand that SRS is a new care option in veterinary medicine, and we get a lot of questions about how it can be best utilized by existing practices. Here are some general guidelines for when it is appropriate to refer to a PetCure Oncology center:

  • When a diagnosis of cancer has been made, or is strongly suspected, and you want your client to understand all of the available treatment options*
  • When the patient has an inoperable tumor or is not a surgical candidate
  • When surgery is declined by the family
  • When clean margins have not been achieved following surgical resection
  • When surgery has been performed in the past and the patient now has a recurrence
  • When side effects from traditional radiation outweigh the treatment benefits or deter the client

*It is important to note that an initial consultation with a radiation oncologist prior to surgery (or intervention with other treatment options) is critical to achieving the most successful outcome possible. This consult will allow us to determine if a curative-intent treatment is feasible before moving forward. The effects of surgery or traditional radiation therapy may exclude a patient from being an SRS candidate, making it crucial to evaluate all options prior to treatment.
