Clinical Trials

We are currently enrolling patients in a number of important studies to advance the field of veterinary medicine.

Veterinary clinical trials are research studies that investigate whether a new medical treatment offers effective therapy for certain conditions including whether the new treatment is better than the current standard therapy. With each study, we're able to answer questions that help us find better ways to diagnose, prevent and treat diseases in pets.

At NorthStar VETS, we're not only the region's leading veterinary emergency, trauma and specialty practice, but we also provide access to novel treatments by offering pets the opportunity to participate in clinical trials. These leading-edge treatments are often made available at a reduced cost.
