Our doctors perform a wide
variety of surgeries ranging from elective spaying and
neutering to complex orthopedic and soft tissue procedures. Anesthetized
patients are carefully monitored by
trained personnel with the aid of a cardiac pulse oximeter monitor and other
special equipment.
If
your pet requires major surgery, the doctor will explain the
procedure, the risks involved,
and the necessary aftercare. An examination
and blood tests are required prior to
anesthesia. All of our surgical procedures comply with AAHA standards.
Bringing in
your pet for a procedure?
Make sure that they do not eat after 8 p.m. the night before their surgery.
Just like in humans, the anesthesia used for the procedures can cause a
queasy stomach in your pet which can complicate their surgery.
Depending on the procedure, the
length of hospital stay can range from same day discharges to two night
stays. Make sure that you bring any medications or supplements that they use
as well as any special food, treats or even toys. Pets enjoy things that
remind them of home. We will properly label them and make sure they stay
strictly with your pet during their stay. Choose Pre-Surgical
on the above menu bar for more information.
