Oncology
A cancer diagnosis can be frightening — but with the right care, many pets can enjoy a good quality of life and, in some cases, full recovery. At Gundaroo Veterinary Centre, we provide comprehensive oncology services for dogs, cats, and small animals, combining advanced diagnostics with experienced surgical and medical care.
Whether your pet needs a lump investigated, a tumour removed, or ongoing cancer management, we’re here to guide you every step of the way.

We offer a full range of diagnostic and treatment options for pets with suspected or confirmed cancer, including:
Fine needle aspirates and biopsies for mass diagnosis
Advanced imaging (CT, X-ray, ultrasound) to evaluate tumour size and spread
Surgical tumour removal, including skin masses, internal organ tumours, and bone lesions
Histopathology to determine cancer type and stage
Post-surgical monitoring and follow-up care
Referral to specialist oncologists for chemotherapy or radiation therapy when needed
Common Cancers We Diagnose and Treat
Mast cell tumours
Soft tissue sarcomas
Lymphoma and leukaemia
Oral tumours
Bone cancer (osteosarcoma)
Skin tumours (including melanomas and squamous cell carcinomas)
