Internal Medicine Services at GSVS
The Internal Medicine service specializes in the diagnosis and treatment of diseases of the gastrointestinal tract, liver, lungs, kidneys and urinary tract. We also manage endocrine and hormonal issues (Diabetes Mellitus, thyroid conditions, Cushing’s disease, etc.), blood abnormalities, autoimmune diseases and infectious diseases.
We perform many advanced diagnostics and treatment options that may not be available through your primary veterinarian. We work closely with you and your primary veterinarian for ongoing care and management of the condition once the initial diagnosis has been made. Internists have been trained to manage multiple medical problems in one pet and are familiar with many unusual and rare diseases of dogs and cats.

- Endoscopy of the gastrointestinal tract and respiratory systems
