Treating the Whole Dog | Dr. Lori Cesario Deep Dive

Think veterinary oncologists are just about chemo, radiation, and surgery? Well, Dr. Lori Cesario is about those and much more. This is a fascinating glimpse into the mind of an oncologist who treats the “whole dog.”

SHOW NOTES

Dr. Cesario explains the unique perspective her specialty brings to the table, not just in treating cancer, but in evaluating your dog’s overall condition and quality of life. And as a specialist, she has some very creative tips and tricks for following the latest research into pain relief and CBD oil, and even getting traditional chemo drugs at a lower cost than you might expect.
