Cutting-Edge Pet Healthcare in Ahmedabad: A New Era

High-Tech Medical Care for Pets

Ahmedabad is seeing a rise in advanced medical care for pets. A German Shepherd recently received a CT scan to confirm a splenic tumor. This helped vets plan the best treatment. The dog’s family waited anxiously for the results.

In Thaltej, a guinea pig underwent life-saving surgery after imaging revealed a stomach tumor. These stories show the lengths families go to keep their pets healthy.

Families and Advanced Pet Care

More families are using advanced tools and surgeries for their pets. These help in emergencies and critical care. Even when euthanasia is the only option, families find comfort in knowing they tried everything.

The Team Behind Pet Healthcare

Pet healthcare in Ahmedabad is a team effort. Vets, radiologists, and surgeons work together. Some experts also work in human medicine. They are passionate about saving animals.

Many imaging centers now serve pets. They follow strict human health safety rules. Vets also consult with human surgeons for complex cases.

Dr. Hiren Thakkar, who runs facilities in Hebatpur Road and Vaishnodevi, says, “We want the best results. We use top-notch setups to achieve that.”

Dr. Ankur Shah, a consultant radiologist, adds, “Scans can ease fears or help plan treatment. We’ve seen rare tumors, fractures, and spinal injuries.” His facility did around 20 scans last month, some for free.

Experts United by a Common Goal

Dr. Mahesh Patel, a gastrointestinal and thoracic onco-surgeon, says, “Pets need CT scans and MRIs just like humans. We can’t delay their treatment.”

Hemant Patel, director of a leading imaging center, says, “We do this out of passion. Radiology and imaging provide crucial details for treatment planning.”

Dr. Hiren adds, “High-tech equipment is expensive. Many private clinics can’t afford it. They refer patients to imaging centers with advanced facilities.”

Dr. Mahesh sees growth in specialty pet healthcare. “Veterinary medicine is now a good career option. Companies are making pet-specific medical equipment.”

Dr. Rasesh Vyas, a radiologist, conducts various tests for pets. “We do around 25 scans a month for cats, dogs, and rabbits. This number is growing.”

The Jivdaya Charitable Trust also has top facilities. Trustee Gira Shah says they have an ICU for animals. “We have a team of 13 veterinarians. We recently introduced new therapies for faster healing.”
