Our state-of-the-art surgical suite provides for the performance of a wide variety of surgical procedures. The most common soft tissue procedures we perform are spays, neuters, and mass removals.
Other soft tissue surgeries are done for various reasons, such as removing foreign bodies from the gastrointestinal tract, removing neoplastic organs, removing bladder stones, and repairing damaged structures e. Additionally, we often take biopsies of diseased tissue for evaluation by a pathologist.
Biopsies help guide medical and surgical treatment. Orthopedic procedures are also performed in the surgical suite, including fracture and soft tissue repair or stabilization.
This method requires special training and is referred to a board-certified surgeon for performance at our hospital. If your pet is diagnosed with a torn cruciate, the two methods are discussed, and the appropriate surgery is arranged.
Wellness exams refer to physical exams that assess the general health of our pets. By detecting problems early, we are much more likely to be able to intervene in a disease process before the changes to the body are irreversible. In addition to the physical exam, we will often use laboratory tests to understand how your pet is doing. Our in-house laboratory allows us to have the results of most tests the same day we see your pet.
