Cushing’s disease

Cushing’s disease (also known as Cushing’s syndrome) is a condition in which the adrenal glands overproduce cortisol hormone. The medical term for this disease is hyperadrenocorticism. Literally translated, “hyper” means over-active, “adreno” means adrenal gland, and “corticism” refers to the outer part (cortex) of the adrenal gland.

Our in-house lab can measure your pet’s cortisol levels and categorise the type of Cushing’s syndrome present.

We want you to know that your pet is in good hands with our veterinary team.
