CONTACT DR SUE
Dr Sue is a board-certified veterinary cancer specialist who sees patients for consultation, second opinions, and cancer treatment. Her desire is to help as many dogs and cats with cancer as she can.
In order to make recommendations about diagnosis, treatment and prognosis, Dr Sue needs to actually meet you and your pet in person to make specific medical recommendations. She currently practices at. Veterinary Referral and Emergency Center in Norwalk, Connecticut.
She cannot give out medical advice via email or on social media.
While she generally does not do consultations online with owners, she does now offer tele-consultations with veterinarians, if your veterinarian would like to consult with Dr Sue. This can be done with Fidu, and here is the link. This might be a good way for you to get Dr. Sue’s input on your pet’s diagnosis and treatment.
If you are looking for more information we also recommend that you go to her Youtube channel and subscribe too. She has so many videos on common cancers and treatments. #KickCancersButt

MANY DOGS AND CATS HAVE LUMPS AND BUMPS. NOT ALL OF THESE MASSES ARE MALIGNANT (CANCEROUS) TUMORS. IN FACT, MOST TUMORS ARE BENIGN (NOT CANCER).Why Wait? Aspirate. – Dr. Susan Ettinger – Official Website of Dr Sue

MANY DOGS AND CATS HAVE LUMPS AND BUMPS. NOT ALL OF THESE MASSES ARE MALIGNANT (CANCEROUS) TUMORS. IN FACT, MOST TUMORS ARE BENIGN (NOT CANCER).
It’s the beginning of the month, which means time to check your pet for lumps and bumps! 🐶 🐈⬛This is a routine physical exam from nose to tail I encourage every pet parent to do to catch a tumor before it becomes a bigger problem and, if needed, begin early detection.
If you find a bump that is the size of a pea or larger and been there a month, then you should make an appointment with your primary veterinarian to have it aspirated.
Have you checked your pet yet? Need a monthly reminder? Just make it a reoccurring event on your calendar. 📆
Remember Zulu?He was the first dog I treated 2 mast cell tumors (MCT) on the same day with Stelfonta. How did he do? Watch to find out.
Both of Zulu’s MCT were small so I thought he would be a good candidate to treat them the same day.
Keep in mind if you are treating more than one, the total tumor volume of both MCT must be < 10 cm3.
Note Individual MCT may respond differently, and the healing process may also be different as we saw with Zulu.
About 57% of the wounds will heal by week 4, and about 78% will be healed by week 6. 99% were healed after 84 days (almost 3 months).
I’m thrilled with how these wounds heal. They close on their own with minimal intervention. Most do not need antibiotics or bandages. No E-collar.
In other patients with a larger MCT, I have chosen to treat one, let the wound heal, then treat the second. Each case can be different, so talk to your veterinarian.
