Absolutely wonderful experience! Amazing service and care for our kitty. Cannot recommend highly enough! My cat loved being there and I would send anyone with a cat diagnosed with hyperthyroidism their way!

I haven’t had the iodine treatment done yet, but I wanted to share my experience so far. I’ve been in contact with the clinic multiple times to discuss my cat’s candidacy, and they were extremely thorough and generous with their time. They carefully explained every step of the process and answered all my questions in detail. The information they shared was very helpful and easy to understand, and it gave me a lot of confidence in their expertise. Based on these interactions, I feel reassured that when my cat does go in for treatment, he will be very well cared for. We just need to complete some additional blood work to confirm he’s healthy, and then we plan to move forward with treatment in the new year.

The NWNM team treated my cat Tuna recently and the entire team was amazing. This entire team is so passionate about the work they do. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience or team. Bri handmade Tuna a collar sprayed in a calming cat pheromone to keep her comfortable (and looking very cute). I was updated by their lovely techs Bri, Mari and Lori during her stay. She had lots of time outside her kennel to explore. The biggest and most heartfelt thank you to Dr Dean for creating her treatment plan and treating her and a thank you to the entire team that cared for Tuna. If anyone is nervous about their cat spending time away from home, know that they will be so loved and well cared for by this team 💗

My cat Tom needed a treatment for his thyroid and I was recommended North West Nuclear Med by my vet. I have nothing but good things to say! They were very welcoming, friendly and professional. They called me everyday at 10:30am to let me know how my cat was doing and were very thorough. I felt comfortable leaving my cat with them and knew he was being well taken care of! Everything went smoothly - payment, drop off, pick up, clear pre and post treatment instructions. They answered all my questions and left me feeling well assured and I love that they have an Instagram page where they post photos of your cat while they are away! ♥️ Thank you for taking care of my Tom Cat and I would definitely recommend them to anyone!

A year after Jarrod’s I-131 treatment at North West Nuclear Medicine for Animals, he’s happier, healthier, and medication-free. I've been meaning to post this review for a while. Jarrod — who had textbook signs of hyperthyroidism — received his treatment here, and he has his life back. He was severely underweight at around 5 lb before treatment (the last photo I shared is from before), and within six months climbed to about 11.8 lb — an impressive increase. I am so grateful to have come across I-131 treatment for hyperthyroid cats. I don't regret committing to this radiotherapy instead of leaving him on medication that doesn’t fix the root problem. The doctors were very knowledgeable and understanding, providing expert advice so we could make an informed decision. Looking back, I feel we made the right choice. Jarrod no longer has daily diarrhea, doesn’t vomit several times every few weeks, and has stopped stealing food off the counter despite being fed not long ago. I was impressed that the scaled dosage was perfect for Jarrod — it was a long process with follow-up T4 blood tests, but totally worth it since he would have needed frequent blood tests if he’d stayed on felimazole. Fast forward to today: his T4 levels are within range and his blood work is very good for his age. We’re fortunate he no longer needs any medication post-treatment. We would make the same decision again. There was a chance he could become hypothyroid after treatment, but even then that’s a much less risky prognosis and far less toll on his organs. Conversely, staying on felimazole long-term could have risked his kidneys, so we still would have chosen treatment. He’s living his best life. We were blessed to have found North West Nuclear Medicine for Animals. From the bottom of my heart, and on behalf of my mom and Jarrod, I’d like to thank Dr. Harvey, Dr. Dean, and RVTs Mari and Brianne for their patience, understanding, attentiveness, and professionalism — and especially for the daily calls that kept me updated throughout Jarrod’s stay. I hope I-131 treatment gets more awareness — many cat owners might not know this option exists. 支持貓咪甲狀腺亢進碘-131療法.
