Surgery Procedures

Anesthesia is a concern to most; rest assured, we use the safest protocols available and tailor them to your pets condition, age and procedure. And during anesthesia, your pet is being closely monitored. We perform both routine surgeries (ie spays, neuters) and other soft-tissue procedures. We offer some services separately, such as microchipping, while under anesthesia. Referring orthopedic or other complicated cases to a specialist or other competent veterinarians depending on your budget since the price of surgery can vary dramatically.

​

There are many types of surgical procedures that can be performed on pets, including: 

  • Neutering

    A surgical procedure that removes part or all of a pet's reproductive organs to prevent them from reproducing. In males, it's called castration, and in females, it's called spaying. 

  • Soft tissue surgery

    A type of surgery that can be used to treat accidents, injuries, tumors, and other problems that affect the soft tissues or are just under the skin. 

  • Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction

    A common orthopedic surgery performed on dogs to repair a torn cranial cruciate ligament in the knee. 

  • Mass removal

    A surgical procedure that can treat or cure skin masses or tumors. The removed mass can also be sent to a lab for further testing. 

  • Laparoscopic surgery

    A minimally invasive procedure that uses small incisions and scoping within the abdomen. 

  • Orthopedic surgery

    A procedure that can involve repairing or replacing damaged bones, joints, and ligaments. 

  • Dental surgery

    A procedure that can be used to remove painful, infected, or fractured teeth. 

When considering surgery for a pet, you should consider factors such as:

  • The pet's age and general health

  • Potential complications from the surgery

  • The potential outcome if surgery is not done

  • Recovery time and post-op care

  • Whether physical therapy or rehabilitation is needed
