As more people own pets and seek care for them, the demand for advanced medical treatments is spiking including cancer care like the novel and expanding veterinary oncology services offered at the Hixson-Lied Small Animal Hospital. “We are truly the only veterinary facility in Iowa that has board oncologist that are treating patients with cancer,” said Dr. Marc Kinsley, executive director of hospital operations. “And what we’re trying to do is expand those offerings.” The Board of Regents recently approved a renovation/addition project to the Pet Cancer Clinic in the Hixson-Lied Small Animal Hospital.
