Veterinary services
Our cardiology clinic is responsible for the investigation and treatment of dogs and cats where heart disease is suspected or has been confirmed. The clinic is run by a Swedish stage 2 specialist in cardiology, which ensures high competence and quality in the investigation.
We accept referrals from other veterinarians, but you as a pet owner are also welcome to book an appointment directly with us. Using advanced ultrasound diagnostics, we can make accurate diagnoses and design a clear treatment plan for each patient.
Einar Johard is a Swedish stage 2 specialist in cardiology with over 20 years of experience in heart disease in dogs and cats. He has broad expertise in the investigation, screening and treatment of both congenital and acquired heart disease, as well as experience in cardiac surgery and teaching in veterinary cardiology.
We listen to the heart and perform a thorough clinical assessment to detect murmurs, rhythm disturbances and other signs of heart disease.
We offer heart screening for breeds at increased risk of heart disease. Through early detection, we can monitor the development and, if necessary, initiate treatment at an early stage.
With ultrasound, we can assess the structure and function of the heart in real time, which is central to making a correct diagnosis.
Blood pressure and blood tests provide important information about the heart's impact on the body and help us adapt treatment.
Heart disease occurs in both dogs and cats and can develop gradually without obvious symptoms at first. Without proper treatment, the condition can lead to decreased energy, breathing problems and in some cases serious complications. Early detection is therefore crucial for the prognosis.
You should seek veterinary care if your animal experiences decreased energy, coughing, rapid or labored breathing, fainting episodes, or if you feel that something is not right. It is also wise to schedule an examination if you suspect heart problems or if your animal belongs to a risk breed.
Heart disease can be both congenital and acquired. Some breeds have an increased genetic risk, while other conditions develop with age. A thorough examination with specialized diagnostics is often required to make the correct diagnosis.
Many heart diseases can be treated and followed up with a good prognosis if they are detected in time. By having your animal examined at early symptoms, we can initiate the right treatment and improve the quality of life.
Since heart problems can vary in complexity, from simple investigations to advanced diagnostics and long-term treatment, we always provide a clear cost estimate after the initial examination. You are also welcome to contact our support for a more specific price quote based on your pet's symptoms.
Some heart conditions can be serious and in some cases life-threatening if not detected in time. By seeking veterinary care early on when symptoms appear, we can begin the right treatment and improve the prognosis for your pet.
Our veterinarian has a strong commitment to cardiology and extensive experience in investigating both congenital and acquired heart diseases in dogs and cats. You will always receive a clear explanation of the diagnosis and a concrete treatment plan.
We know that cardiac examinations can be unfamiliar to the animal. That's why we work at a leisurely pace and ensure that your animal has time to relax and feel safe before the examination begins.
Even if you have met with us at home before, we have a full overview of your animal's history when you visit our cardiology clinic. Through our shared medical record system, we create continuity of care, which saves time and increases safety for both you and your animal.
VetAtHome offers both clinic visits, home visits and visits to our veterinary practices – what is best depends on your animal's needs and what feels most convenient for you. We work with all insurance companies, making it easy to get help regardless of your insurance coverage.
