Surgical Procedures We Offer
We offer a wide range of grooming services to keep your dog feeling fresh and healthy:
Soft Tissue Surgery
Soft tissue surgery covers a broad range of procedures involving the skin, muscles, and internal organs. These surgeries may be necessary to remove tumors, repair wounds, or address gastrointestinal and urogenital conditions. We also offer spay and neuter procedures, which provide numerous health benefits and help control the pet population. Soft tissue surgeries are often performed to improve a pet’s quality of life by resolving pain, infections, or other health complications that could worsen without intervention.
Orthopedic Surgery
For pets suffering from bone fractures, joint issues, or ligament injuries, orthopedic surgery can restore mobility and alleviate pain. These procedures include fracture repairs, cruciate ligament repairs, and joint stabilization techniques for conditions such as hip dysplasia or patellar luxation. Pets experiencing difficulty walking, lameness, or chronic pain may benefit from orthopedic surgical intervention to regain function and lead an active life.
Dental Surgery
Oral health is a critical component of a pet’s overall well-being. When dental disease progresses beyond routine cleanings, dental surgery may be necessary. Procedures include tooth extractions, treatment for severe periodontal disease, and removal of oral tumors.
Emergency & Trauma Surgery
Accidents and sudden medical emergencies can require immediate surgical care. Our team is prepared to handle emergency cases, including internal bleeding, severe wounds, or life-threatening conditions such as bloat (gastric dilatation-volvulus). In emergency situations, swift surgical action can be the difference between life and death, making timely intervention crucial for a pet’s survival and recovery.
What to Expect During Pet Surgery
From consultation to post-operative care, we ensure a smooth and stress-free experience:
- Pre-Surgical Consultation & Diagnostics – Every surgery begins with a thorough examination, bloodwork, and imaging (if necessary) to assess your pet’s health and prepare for the procedure.
- Safe Anesthesia & Monitoring – We use advanced anesthesia protocols and continuous monitoring to keep your pet safe and comfortable throughout the surgery.
- Expert Surgical Care – Our skilled veterinarians perform procedures with precision, using the latest surgical techniques and equipment.
- Post-Surgical Recovery & Pain Management – Your pet’s recovery is just as important as the procedure itself. We provide detailed at-home care instructions, pain relief options, and follow-up appointments to ensure a smooth healing process.
FAQs About Pet Surgery
Can my pet be around other pets after surgery?
It depends on the type of surgery and your pet’s recovery process. In most cases, pets should have limited interaction with other animals to prevent excessive activity, infection, or accidental injury. Always follow your veterinarian’s post-operative instructions.
Can my pet eat or drink before surgery?
Most pets should not eat or drink for at least 8-12 hours before surgery to reduce the risk of aspiration during anesthesia. However, specific guidelines may vary, so be sure to follow your veterinarian’s instructions.
How will my pet be monitored under anesthesia?
Our veterinary team uses advanced monitoring equipment to track your pet’s vital signs, including heart rate, oxygen levels, and blood pressure, throughout the procedure. A dedicated veterinary professional will be present to ensure your pet remains safe and stable.
How long will it take for my pet to recover?
Recovery time varies based on the type of surgery. Minor procedures may require only a few days of rest, while more complex surgeries may take weeks. We provide a detailed recovery plan and follow-up appointments to monitor your pet’s healing progress.
Will my pet be in pain after surgery?
Pain management is a priority in our post-operative care. We provide medications to keep your pet comfortable, and we’ll guide you on how to manage pain at home.
