Your Partner Through Every Challenge

Tidewater Veterinary Hospital specializes in managing chronic conditions that commonly affect our beloved companions as they age, helping maintain their quality of life while strengthening the bond you share.

Diabetes Management
With the right support, diabetic pets can live long, happy lives. We’ll show you how to check blood sugar, give insulin confidently, and spot signs that need attention. Ongoing monitoring, diet help, and regular check-ins make diabetes surprisingly manageable.

Kidney Disease
Kidney issues often start subtly, but early care makes a big difference. We tailor treatment with special diets, fluids, meds, and frequent monitoring to support your pet’s comfort and quality of life—so they can keep doing what they love.

Heart Disease
A heart condition doesn’t mean giving up joy. With routine checks, the right meds, and guidance on at-home monitoring, we help pets stay active and thriving. Our goal: more tail wags, more purrs, more good days.

Arthritis & Joint Care
Aging shouldn’t mean living in pain. From meds and joint support to lifestyle tips and acupuncture, we help keep senior pets moving comfortably. Small changes at home can mean a big difference in mobility and happiness.

Thyroid Disorders
Thyroid issues are common—and very treatable. With regular monitoring and medication, we help bring energy and behavior back to normal. Most pets bounce back quickly once treatment starts.
