Surgery

Bringing a family member in for surgery – whether they are of the human or animal variety – can be a stressful time filled with anxiety and uncertainty. You may find yourself asking a lot of serious questions. Will your pet be in pain? Will they be well cared for? Will the surgery be a success and get the positive results you’re hoping for? At Animal Care Clinic, we’re familiar with the many questions that you may be struggling with, and we want to set your mind at ease once and for all. We want you to feel confident that when it comes to surgical care, your animal companion will be in excellent hands with us!

We offer a full range of surgical services, from routine operations to complex and emergency procedures, all performed in our state of the art surgical suite by our highly skilled veterinarians. What’s more, our experienced care team is always on hand to assist with surgery and to monitor the wellbeing of our patients at all times. At Animal Care Clinic, your pet’s safety and comfort are always our top priority and we’ll take every measure available to ensure the best possible outcome.

Before surgery, your pet will receive comprehensive preoperative testing. We want to make sure that they are well enough to undergo surgery, particularly that they will be able to tolerate the anesthesia well. This is especially important for pets that are older or those who suffer from existing medical conditions. Once we receive the go-ahead to proceed, we’ll develop a customized pain management plan, utilizing the safest available anesthetic products, that is tailored specifically to your pet’s unique needs. The goal is to keep them as comfortable as possible while also minimizing risk at every turn.

During surgery, our experienced veterinarians will work diligently to conduct the procedure as efficiently and effectively as possible. Your pet will be closely monitored at all times by our well trained veterinary technicians using state of the art equipment to measure blood pressure, heart rate and oxygen level. We’ll also keep a close eye on your pet’s pain control levels throughout the entire procedure so that we can reduce and eliminate discomfort as much as possible.

Some of the surgical services performed at the Animal Care Clinic include:

• Spays/Neuters
• Soft Tissue Surgery
• Orthopedic Procedures
• Hip Surgery
• Knee Surgery
• Fracture Repair (plating and pinning)
• Tumor Removal

When your pet’s surgery is finished, we’ll contact you to let you know how everything went and to schedule a time for you to come pick your animal up. When you arrive, a member of our team will carefully go over our post-surgical care instructions, which may include a pain management plan to keep your pet as comfortable as possible during the recovery process. Should you have any questions or concerns about your pet’s condition or aftercare once you’ve returned home, please don’t hesitate to call us. We’re always happy to assist in any way we can!

Finding out your pet needs surgery can be a downright scary time for you both. You want to know you can trust those to whom you turn your companion over for surgery and be confident that they’ll provide your pet with the best possible care – before, during and following surgery. At Animal Care Clinic, we’ve got everything necessary to meet all of your pet’s surgical care needs in the safest, most effective way possible.
