Will you sedate my pet?

Yes, pets are sedated during operations to ensure they feel no pain. It is important to us that patients feel comfortable and calm at all stages of the procedure. After the procedure, our team will closely monitor your pet as they recover from the anesthetic and surgery.

How do I prepare my pet for surgery?

Before the procedure is scheduled, our team will walk you through what to expect during and after the surgery, so you have all the information you need. Depending on the type of surgery, we will also go over how you can best help your loyal companion. If your pet needs a general anesthetic for their procedure, we may ask that you fast them overnight. Our priority is to ensure you and your pet feel safe, calm, and comfortable throughout the procedure.

What happens after surgery?

After the surgery, our team will closely monitor patients as they recover. We will then give you a call with an update on how the surgery went and schedule a discharge appointment. To help your pet during their healing process, we will provide you with a list of home care instructions and medication to manage any pain.
