Pet Surgery

Our pet surgery combines careful planning, skilled technique, and attentive monitoring to help your companion heal safely. From routine spays and neuters to more involved procedures, we focus on comfort at every step.

Common procedures may include spays and neuters, mass removals, dental extractions, wound repairs, and other soft tissue operations.

Before any operation, we perform an exam and pre-anesthetic bloodwork to confirm your pet is a good candidate. During the procedure, a trained team member monitors heart rate, breathing, and oxygen levels, and pain control continues through recovery.

What To Expect During Pet Surgery

The first thing your veterinarian will do if your pet has been diagnosed with a condition that requires surgery is perform a complete physical examination along with a thorough analysis of blood and urine samples in our diagnostic lab. This testing is done to create a custom anesthesia protocol for your pet as well as discover any underlying conditions that might cause complications during the procedure.

During surgery, a catheter will be inserted and your pet will receive anesthesia. An IV will also be attached to provide the fluids necessary to maintain proper blood pressure. Throughout the procedure, a technician will constantly monitor your pet’s vital signs using sophisticated medical equipment.

Post Surgery

After the procedure, your pet will spend a few hours in a recovery room, and then they’ll be able to go home, usually the same day. Occasionally the doctor may decide to keep a patient overnight for further observation. You should plan for your pet to spend at least the whole day at the hospital.

You’ll be advised on how to care for your pet at home, and you’ll be told if you need to schedule any follow-up appointments. In general, your pet should stay indoors and avoid exertion for several days until they are well along in their recovery and you may need to take precautions to keep them from licking and biting at their sutures.
