Complementary Pet Therapies

Complementary therapies are used alongside traditional medicine and can allow us to come up with different treatment options or understand things in a different way.

Genetic Testing

Genetic testing for pets can help identify and prevent diseases like glaucoma and breed-specific diseases. Due to breeding, some conditions are much more likely to occur in one breed or the other, so genetic testing allows us to understand the genome of your pet. It can also tell you if your pet has genes that make them resistant to certain drugs or treatments.

We offer genetic testing at Fairview Heights Animal Clinic, so let us know if that is something that you might be interested in.
