Surgical Services
Our veterinarians provide many surgical services at our clinic, ranging from routine to complicated and advanced procedures. We work alongside orthopedic specialists who come into our hospital to perform bone surgeries, TPLO’s, and fracture repairs for example.
We take all the necessary precautions to ensure that your pet receives a safe anesthetic. We perform a physical exam and pre-anesthetic testing before surgery, monitor your pet during surgery, and provide pain medication and ICU monitoring when necessary during recovery.
Please take a look at the more detailed descriptions of different Surgical Services we offer, or Call Us to discuss your pet’s needs.
Surgical Laser
Laser Surgery is an advanced veterinary practice and technique that offers many benefits. It can reduce pain, minimize bleeding, accelerate healing, and potentially lower the risk of complications during and after surgical procedures.
Types of procedures we are able to perform with the Surgical Laser include:
* All soft tissue surgeries
* Spay & Neutering
* Growth & tumor removals
The benefits to using a Surgical Laser in surgical treatment are endless. Benefits include:
* Completely Sterile
* Decreased Pain
* Less Bleeding
* Less Trauma to Tissue
* Little or no need for Sutures
* Minimal Swelling
* More efficient Surgery
* Precision in Surgery
* Faster Recovery
Cryoprobe
Our cryoprobe delivers cryotherapy using liquid nitrogen to treat many kinds of lesions on and around the body.
Cryprobes treat skin cancer, skin lesions, prostate cancer, and other types of cancer.
A cryoprobe is used to remove small lumps and bumps such as skin tags, often without sedation or anesthesia. This is a great way to save money compared to conventional sedation or anesthesia and surgery.
Aftercare & Monitoring
We take patient monitoring and surgery or treatment aftercare very seriously.
We ensure your pet’s comfort and stress level are at the forefront of our minds. From heated-plates to warm IV fluid, to ICU kennels and extra bedding, your pet handled with the utmost compassion and care post-surgery or during treatment.
In-house ICU Kennels
We are so excited to now have Intensive Care Unit (ICU) kennels not just for critically ill pets, but for patient monitoring, and surgical aftercare. This allows us to provide the best comfort and care for your pet!
These sophisticated kennels provide infrared therapy, precisely controlled cabin air and bed temperatures, oxygen levels and humidity.
They also include ventilation and connector lines for IVs to remain attached and unmoved.
We use these kennels both for aftercare monitoring, or for pets in our care that need their health conditions and vitals closely monitored in specific medical cases.
Pet Medical Shirt/Onesie
In terms of aftercare, we also provide medical healing pet shirts/one-sies as an alternative option to using a cone. The onesie shirt covers the entire body and zips or buttons up so your pet cannot lick or scratch at surgical sutures or wounds. This eliminates the lack of mobility that would come with using a cone, and provides a more comfortable option.
