Our recent POCUS ultrasound course for the MAES team members and referring DVM community was a tremendous success! Each of the 3 sessions were filled with learning, laughter, and hands-on experience thanks to our incredible patient volunteers, knowledgeable instructors and 50 attendees.

A special shoutout to Chelsea, whose exceptional organization and genuine connections brought this event to life.

This course was not only a fun and educational opportunity, but also a wonderful way for our hospital to leave on a high note, sharing valuable ER ultrasound knowledge back with our referring DVM community. Thank you to all those who attended!

Hyperthyroidism is one of the most common endocrine disorders in older cats. Symptoms can include weight loss despite a strong appetite, increased thirst, vomiting, or hyperactivity.

The good news: treatment options exist, ranging from medication to dietary therapy and more advanced approaches.

Our Internal Medicine team is here to help provide answers and develop tailored treatment plans for every cat.

It's not Hocus POCUS - just lifesaving magic!

At Mountainside, every emergency exam includes point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS) - a fast, non-invasive tool that helps our doctors see what’s happening inside the body in real time.

From detecting internal bleeding to guiding emergency treatment, POCUS takes the guesswork out of urgent care and helps us act quickly when every second counts.
