What To Expect

We understand the thought of bringing your cat in for surgery can be scary. Please know that the only times we will recommend surgery is when it is in your pet's best interest. Before any procedure, our team will make sure that you fully comprehend why we are recommending surgery, and that you are comfortable deciding to move forward.


Our Surgical Protocols Include:

  • Pre-Surgical Assessments: Before administering any medication, we will run bloodwork to determine if your pet may face any risk of anesthesia-related complications.
  • Dedicated Technician: Your pet’s vitals, including respiratory rate, blood-oxygen levels, heart rate and rhythm, and blood pressure will be monitored throughout the surgery.
  • Surgical Attire: Maintaining a sterile and safe surgical suite is paramount to our procedures. Our staff always wears disposable caps and masks when they are in the surgical suite. Anyone involved in the procedure itself will also wear sterile gowns and single-use gloves.
  • Post-Op Support: Our team will send you home with clear instructions for after-surgery care to ensure a swift recovery. We are always available to answer any questions about the procedure or recovery process.

Our love for your pets is at the heart of all we do. From surgery to recovery, diagnostics to post-operative care, our goal is to offer your pets the love and care they deserve.
