Focused on Patient Safety at Every Step

We take surgical safety seriously, which is why every procedure includes:

Pre-Anesthetic Lab Work

Preparatory tests inform the veterinarian about your pet’s organ function and whether they are healthy enough for anesthesia.

Individualized Anesthetic Protocol

Based on your pet’s health status, breed, and age, our veterinarian carefully selects the safest anesthetic medications and protocols to create a balanced anesthesia.

Continuous Monitoring

Electronic monitoring equipment and a dedicated veterinary technician track and record your pet’s vital signs, including oxygenation, heart and respiratory rate, blood pressure, heart rhythm, and temperature, and alert the surgeon to any change.

State-Of-The-Art Surgical Suite

Our dedicated surgery room, equipment, and instruments ensure the highest sterility level.

Heat Support

Anesthesia causes hypothermia, which can slow recovery, so we use warm water circulating mats and warm air blankets to preserve your pet’s body heat.

Pain Management

We use a multimodal analgesia plan to ensure your pet remains pain-free.
Supervised recovery — Your pet is closely monitored to ensure they stay warm and comfortable until they are fully awake.

Preparing Your Pet for Surgery

A successful procedure starts with proper preparation. Before surgery, we will provide detailed instructions for your pet:

Fasting: Most pets need to stop eating 8-12 hours before surgery to reduce anesthesia risks
Medications: Let us know if your pet is taking any medications so we can advise on whether to continue or pause them
Comfort & Calmness: Bring your pet in a secure carrier or on a leash to minimize stress on the day of surgery

Post-Surgical Care: What to Expect

We’ll guide you through every step of your pet’s post-surgical care. At discharge, a veterinary technician will:

Go over detailed home care instructions
Explain prescribed medications
Schedule any needed follow-up appointments
Answer any questions about your pet’s recovery

Common Pet Surgery FAQ's

Is Surgery Safe for Older Pets?

Yes. Older pets can safely undergo surgery with proper screening and customized anesthesia protocols. We take additional precautions to minimize risk for senior pets.

How Do I Know If My Pet Needs Surgery?

Our veterinarians will perform a complete physical exam and recommend surgery only if it’s truly necessary. We’ll explain the condition, all treatment options, and what you can expect before moving forward.

What If My Pet Needs Advanced or Orthopedic Surgery?

If your pet requires a more advanced procedure, we work closely with our NVC Nederland location, where our surgeons can perform orthopedic or complex soft tissue surgeries.
