What Is Internal Medicine?

An internal medicine specialist can provide advanced care when you and your pet’s primary veterinarian determine that more comprehensive diagnostic testing, therapeutic treatments, or a second opinion is needed. Our internists possess in-depth knowledge of a wide range of internal conditions, including disorders of the gastrointestinal system, kidneys, bladder, endocrine system, liver, respiratory system, heart, and lungs. Accurate interpretation of these results is critical in developing a targeted and effective treatment plan for your pet.

What To Expect

Your initial appointment with an internal medicine specialist will include a detailed review of your pet’s medical history, a thorough physical examination, and a discussion of recommended diagnostic and treatment plans for your pet. We are dedicated to collaborating with you, your pet, and your family veterinarian to deliver the highest quality care and provide the information necessary to help you make informed decisions.

Dr Meeks and her technician Megan were so wonderful to me and my kitty Luna! Such a nice clean facility and it was very welcoming. They both explained everything to me what was going on with Luna and gave me all the options for her IBD. I know she is in good hands when she goes there! Highly recommend!!

Dr. Siu is truly one of a kind and I cannot recommend him enough! I could tell how much he cares during our first appointment with him. Dr. Siu asked so many questions about my dog, and was truly interested in helping her. I did not feel rushed as I have at other vet offices, I felt like I could sit there and talk to him for hours if needed because he cares that much. My dog is a very complex case with an extensive medical history and that’s why I needed to see an internal medicine specialist. I’m so happy that I chose to see Dr. Siu because he is the most knowledgeable veterinarian that I’ve encountered and I’ve encountered many. The ultrasound that he did revealed abnormalities that other veterinarians have missed and we are getting closer to a diagnosis for my girl. We still have to do a few more tests, but I’m confident in Dr. Siu’s ability and know that he will figure out what’s wrong soon enough. Epic and us pet parents are lucky to have Dr. Siu!
