Frequently asked questions
- What advanced imaging capabilities are available at Veterinary Specialists of Hanover?
- The clinic offers inpatient and outpatient computed tomography (CT) imaging. They utilize a BodyTom CT scanner, which is a non-invasive tool used to diagnose various conditions, including nasal disease, lung disease, tumors, bony lesions, and congenital abnormalities. This technology also assists the team with surgical planning and provides diagnostic information beyond what is typically available through standard x-rays and ultrasounds.
- Does the clinic offer regenerative medicine treatments?
- Yes, the practice provides Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy. This regenerative treatment uses a pet's own blood to help manage pain, reduce inflammation, and promote faster healing. It is particularly utilized for arthritis and orthopedic injuries, serving as a minimally invasive option that can support post-surgical recovery and potentially delay the need for surgery in some cases.
- Who leads the surgical team at this practice?
- The surgical team is led by Dr. Kristy Broaddus, who is the founder of the practice and an ACVS board-certified veterinary surgeon.
