Surgical Procedures
Does your pet need urgent surgery, but your regular veterinarian is booked out for weeks? Give us a call, and we will work with your veterinarian to determine the best course of action for surgery. We have the capability to perform most common surgical procedures, and we can often accommodate same-day procedures. Surgical procedures require anesthesia and follow-up care, so we will develop a plan of care and discuss all the details with you to make sure you and your pet have the best experience possible. If your pet needs a specific surgery that you do not see on the lists below, please give us a call. We may be able to help!
