Veterinary Surgery
Our surgeons are experienced at performing routine soft tissue surgeries - including spays, neuters, and lump removals. The surgery team also includes our experienced veterinary technicians who closely monitor anesthetized patients and provide compassionate post-op care.
Our team rigorously monitors anesthesia and cardiovascular functioning throughout each stage of surgery- from pre-surgical sedation to complete recovery. An exam and pre-surgical bloodwork is conducted to determine what is best anesthesia protocol for your pet. For instance, we consider factors such as the type of procedure, pre-existing conditions, blood test values, breed, and prior anesthetic experience.
