ABOUT OUR GUEST:
Dr. McManamey (aka Dr. Mac) is a veterinary cardiologist. She received her degree of veterinary medicine from the University of Missouri. She then completed a rotating internship at the Ohio State University followed by an emergency and critical care internship at North Carolina State University. She finished her cardiology residency at North Carolina State University and became an ACVIM diplomate in 2021. Dr. Mac is currently an assistant clinical professor at Purdue University in Indiana. Cardiology is her favorite subject because it can be made as simple or as complex as needed. Furthermore, every animal has a heart and that means Dr. Mac gets to work with all kinds of species. Her areas of interest within cardiology are echocardiogram, congenital heart disease and interventional procedures, as well as emergency management of cardiac disease. She has a very supportive and patient husband along with three canine fur-children, one of which had a patent ductus arteriosus (of course).

It's rare to see someone's honest excitement to share their knowledge. I'd like to see her back as a guest.
great discussion, honest, to the point. I learned a lot! THANK YOU very much!!!
My 15 just recently today developed a murmur, she has a cough, tomorrow X-rays at Banfield Hospital, I’m glad I listened tonight. Thank you so much! I feel a bit more educated! I have a wellness plan for my cat and my Dog Sophie. The plan doesn’t cover the cost of the exams. I thought she was covered for the testing at least.
Vancouver checking in! good show!
you can use natural diuretics hawthorne berry, nettle etc.
I just listened to this on spotify!
After you start vetmedin, are dogs expected to be on it for life?
Every case and pet are unique. Generally the medicine will be required as long as the underlying problem persists. Again, every case is different.
@@ConeOfShame can an enlarged heart ever heal as long as the mitral valve is the cause? My dog is only 8 and I brought him in for an occasional cough, so it was a devastating and unexpected diagnosis. He’s a schnauzer mix. I started the lasix and vetmedin yesterday and my dog is lethargic and doesn’t want to eat. It seems like a miserable life. Thank you for responding. I seriously feel like I need a support group for dog CHF! 🤦🏻♀️
@@michellenyscI just had a CHF diagnosis for my shih tzu mini poodle mix 2.5 weeks ago he turns 8 in May. ER put him on lasix and pimobendan so we’re going through something similar. How’s your baby doing?
