Hearing your pet might have a heart condition is stressful. Getting the treatment they need, shouldn’t be.
That is why we built a state-of-the-art clinic designed with you in mind. We often refer to it as our cardio haven- a safe space to focus on you, your pet, and the speciality heart care you deserve.
We provide comprehensive cardiology care- offering services that you would otherwise have to drive hours to get. We have a growing team so that you can receive the care you deserve in weeks, not months.
What to Expect
-
Up front
There are no “surprise” fees associated with your consultation. We will never perform a test without discussing the cost first.
-
Expedient
Get seen quickly so you can have answers to your pet’s heart problem in weeks, not months.
-
Consistent
We’ve been going strong in the Seattle area for 8 years. We are independently owned- founded by Dr. Maran with only a laptop and a $100 from his savings account. Needless to say, we aren’t for sale and we aren’t going anywhere.

The last thing you should experience when wondering what is wrong with your pet is a
noisy, chaotic environment.
That is why we’ve worked hard to create a calm and peaceful clinic environment. We use calming pheromones and eliminate any unnecessary distractions.
Our Focus Is You,
Your Pet, And Their Needs.
- Prior to your office visit, we will let you know how much it is going to cost. We won’t surprise you by only quoting an office visit fee, knowing you are coming for diagnostic testing as well. We’ll make sure the cost we give you matches what you’ll actually pay when you visit us. Sometimes we find something that requires some additional testing. If this happens, we will provide you with an appropriate estimate before we proceed.
- You will confirm your appointment with an online deposit. The deposit is refundable up to 24 hours before your scheduled appointment. If you need to reschedule, please contact us right away so you can avoid any late cancellation or no show fees.
-
Our team will be there to greet you when you arrive. They will escort you to a quiet and comfortable exam room that has been prepared just for you.
One of our staff will chat with you about your pet’s health and collect a non-invasive blood pressure and electrocardiogram test. Your cardiologist will review the results prior to their conversation with you. We will then complete an echocardiogram in our dedicated Echo Labs.

Special Considerations
For Your Pet
Just like a kid going to the dentist, a veterinary appointment should not be a stressful event for you OR your pet! We work to ensure that.
- If you know your pet is anxious in a clinical environment, please contact us to discuss options. If a pet is particularly agitated, we will discuss sedation options. Our goal is a no-stress visit for you and your family.
- Some pets benefit from a social tour of the facility. You can come on a day prior to their medical visit so they can familiarize themselves with the environment. We have tasty treats ready for them at all times!
- Others may require pre-visit sedation with oral sedatives. We will work with your primary care veterinary office to make this possible. We strive to maintain a low-stress, low-anxiety visit to ensure accurate results.
- Some patients become too stressed or become aggressive. This may require additional (injectable) sedation.
Specialized Vet Care
Each of our doctors graduated from veterinary school. There they learned all there is to know about treating animals from head to toe. Next, they went on to receive four more years of specialized training in cardiology. This training taught them the ins and outs of animals’ hearts and blood vessels.
Our staff is comprised of four board-certified cardiologists. Together they have over 40 years of experience treating animals with heart conditions. They’ve treated a large variety of animals including:
- Dogs
- Cats
- Horses
- Sea Otters
- Sea Turtles
- Birds
- Ferrets
- Rabbits
- Hamsters
- Goats
- Cows
- Reptiles
- Bears
- And more...

Our team works collaboratively to treat your pet, which means even though you just meet with one of our doctors, you receive the expertise of all of them combined.

Cutting Edge Technology
We built this facility to provide premier cardiology care to the Seattle area.
Using the latest equipment on the market, we are able to provide the most accurate and reliable testing for your pet. After all, how clear do you want the images for the cardiologist working on your pet’s heart?


Cutting-edge
digital C-Arm
This ensures precise images, unparalleled anatomic assessment, clear catheter movement, and optimal measurements for the most precise imaging that parallels or even exceeds human-based Cath Labs.

3D/4D
Echocardiography
Not only can we see all of the anatomic structures but how they are moving in each direction. We have the ability to analyze these images in real time or any time thereafter, allowing for optimal consultation and follow-up. This may be invaluable for establishing a diagnosis of dynamic diseases, extent of certain defects, or possibly provide critical information to prepare a unique procedure or device, ensuring minimal stress, travel, or risk to the patient.

Transesophageal Echo
With the use of a general anesthesia to keep our patients safe and comfortable, we take detailed pictures of their heart using a special camera that goes down their throat. This gives us clear pictures without interference from the lungs, and lets us create 3D models of the heart and measure its different parts. With this detailed information, we can consult with open-heart surgical teams or precisely plan minimally invasive therapy for patients.
