What Is Veterinary Internal Medicine?
Veterinary internal medicine is a specialty focused on diseases affecting a pet’s internal organs and systems (gastrointestinal, endocrine, immune system, liver, kidneys, lungs, etc.). Our internal medicine team applies a methodical, evidence-based approach to evaluate and manage conditions that may elude routine exams.
We use state-of-the-art diagnostics — including digital imaging, ultrasound, endoscopy, and in-house lab testing — to detect anomalies early and tailor treatment to each pet’s unique health profile.
When to See an Internal Medicine Vet in Tampa
If general veterinary care isn’t resolving symptoms or if a condition becomes more complex or persistent, it’s time to consider an internal medicine consultation. Some common indicators include:
Chronic digestive issues (vomiting, diarrhea, weight loss, appetite changes) potentially pointing to inflammatory bowel disease, pancreatitis, or other GI disorders
Hormonal or endocrine disorders such as diabetes, Cushing’s, Addison’s disease, or hyperthyroidism
Immune-mediated or autoimmune diseases, where the immune system attacks the body’s own tissues
Liver, kidney, or multi-organ dysfunction requiring in-depth assessment
Unexplained or persistent symptoms not resolving with standard diagnostics or treatment
Heart murmurs, suspected cardiac disease, chronic respiratory or urinary tract concerns
