Silver Whiskers…the Aging of America’s Pet Population..........

..............

Thanks to advancements in veterinary medicine, nutrition and general care, the average age of America’s pet population is greater than ever before.  But just as with the aging of their owners, senior pets are more prone to aches, pains, challenges and diseases. 

My guest today is Dr. Diane Levitan.  She is a board certified veterinary internist.  Dr. Levitan assists her aging patients in living the best quality of life for as long as possible.   She will discuss how therapies such as hyperbaric oxygen therapy, gamma ray therapy, radioactive isotope treatments and ultrasounds can diagnose and help save the lives of our silver whiskered pets.
