What to Expect for Your Pet’s Surgery
We know surgery can be stressful for both you and your pet. Here’s how we make the process as smooth as possible:
Before surgery: Every surgical patient receives a thorough pre-operative exam and pre-anesthetic bloodwork. This helps us tailor an anesthesia and pain management plan specific to your pet’s needs.
During surgery: Our dedicated and highly trained surgical team monitors your pet’s vital signs closely throughout the procedure using advanced monitoring equipment. Safety is never an afterthought here — it’s the whole point.
After surgery: You’ll go home with clear, detailed post-operative care instructions. We’ll also schedule follow-up appointments to ensure your pet is healing well and to address any questions that come up along the way. (And yes, we expect you to spoil them a little during recovery. Doctor’s orders.)
