Supporting Comfort and Quality of Life for Every Stage of Your Pet’s Journey
Pet Pain Management & Chronic Care
At Newark Veterinary Hospital, we believe that no pet should suffer in silence. Whether your companion is recovering from surgery, managing a chronic illness, or facing age-related discomfort, our pain management and chronic care services are designed to ease their discomfort and support their overall wellbeing. Our experienced team is dedicated to identifying and treating pain early, using a multimodal approach tailored to your pet’s specific needs.
Understanding Pet Pain
Pets are experts at hiding discomfort. Subtle signs like decreased activity, changes in behavior, or reluctance to jump or climb stairs can often indicate that your pet is experiencing pain. Chronic conditions such as arthritis, dental disease, injuries, or post-operative recovery can all contribute to ongoing discomfort if not properly managed.
Comprehensive Pain Management Options
We take a proactive, compassionate approach to pain control, combining modern medical treatments with attentive care to keep your pet comfortable and thriving. Our services include:
- Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs)
- Opioid pain relievers (when appropriate)
- Joint supplements and nutraceuticals
- Laser therapy (where applicable)
- Weight management plans
- Physical rehabilitation and lifestyle modifications
- Customized pain management plans for long-term conditions
We also provide ongoing monitoring to ensure your pet’s treatment remains effective and safe over time.
Chronic Disease Management
Many pets—especially seniors—live with chronic illnesses such as:
- Arthritis
- Diabetes
- Kidney or liver disease
- Hypothyroidism or hyperthyroidism
- Heart conditions
These conditions require a thoughtful, long-term care plan. Our veterinarians work closely with pet owners to create sustainable strategies that include regular monitoring, dietary support, medication adjustments, and lifestyle changes to help your pet live as comfortably as possible.
A Team You Can Trust
Our doctors and staff are trained to recognize even the most subtle signs of pain and discomfort. We stay current with the latest advancements in veterinary medicine to bring your pet the most effective, least invasive treatments available. Your pet’s comfort is our top priority every day.
