Advanced Surgery: Specialized Veterinary Care When It Matters MostWhen your pet faces a serious health issue, advanced surgery can make all the difference. Whether it’s repairing a broken bone, removing a tumor, or addressing internal complications, our skilled veterinary team is here to provide expert surgical care with compassion and precision.What Is Advanced Surgery?Advanced veterinary surgery goes beyond routine procedures like spays or neuters. These specialized surgeries require enhanced training, experience, and equipment. Depending on your pet’s needs, this may include:<ul><li>Orthopedic surgeries (e.g., cruciate ligament repair, fracture stabilization)</li><li>Soft tissue surgeries (e.g., mass removals, bladder stone removal, abdominal exploratory)</li><li>Emergency procedures (e.g., internal bleeding, gastric dilatation-volvulus)</li></ul>At our hospital, all surgeries are performed in a fully equipped, sterile surgical suite with advanced anesthetic monitoring to ensure your pet’s safety from start to finish.When Does a Pet Need Advanced Surgery?Your veterinarian may recommend advanced surgery for:<ul><li>Sudden lameness or joint issues</li><li>Non-healing wounds or growths</li><li>Trauma (e.g., broken bones or internal injuries)</li><li>Chronic issues that aren’t responding to medication</li><li>Urgent conditions such as blocked intestines or bladder stones</li></ul>We’ll start with a thorough physical exam and may use tools like digital X-rays, ultrasound, or bloodwork to determine the best course of treatment.What to Expect Before and After Surgery<ol><li>Pre-surgical prep: We conduct comprehensive lab work and imaging to assess your pet’s health and plan the safest surgical approach.</li><li>During surgery: Your pet is carefully anesthetized and continuously monitored by trained staff using modern monitoring systems.</li><li>Post-operative care: We create a personalized pain management and recovery plan, and provide clear take-home instructions.</li></ol>We may also recommend laser therapy or rehabilitation to support your pet’s healing and reduce inflammation after certain procedures.Your Partner in RecoveryAfter surgery, rest and home care are essential. We'll walk you through how to:<ul><li>Monitor the incision site</li><li>Limit your pet’s activity safely</li><li>Administer medications as prescribed</li><li>Watch for signs of discomfort or complications</li></ul>Our team is available to answer questions and provide follow-up visits to ensure your pet heals fully and comfortably.Whether your pet needs a complex orthopedic procedure or urgent surgical care, our experienced veterinarians are committed to delivering the highest standard of treatment.📞 Have questions or need a consultation?
