​SURGERY & DENTAL SERVICES

Surgical Services

Picture
Our veterinarians perform sterile surgeries and anesthetic is monitored by trained veterinary technicians.  Spays, neuters, and other common surgeries are approached in the same manner as more complicated procedures.  Surgical procedures are performed Monday through Friday mornings and are done by appointment only.  Before performing surgery, the veterinarian must have done  a physical exam on the patient within the last year that assesses physical condition.  In addition, all surgical patients need to have current vaccinations.  

Pre-Surgical Blood Screen
We highly recommend that all surgery patients have a pre-surgical blood screen.  The blood screen provides important baseline information about your pet's health and can reveal hidden pre-existing health conditions.  Most importantly, this testing allows peace of mind for you.  You will know that you are doing everything possible to ensure a positive outcome.  

IV Fluids and Pain Medication
All surgical patients are given IV fluids during surgery.  This helps patients maintain a more steady blood pressure.  In addition, it allows easy access through a port to give medication during surgery, if needed.  Because we want your pet to recover as comfortably as possible, the veterinarians prescribe pain medication.  Generally, pain medication is given prior to dismissal and medication is also sent home to make the recuperation period easier at home.



Dental Services

Dogs and cats get plaque and tartar on their teeth just like we do.  Because they cannot brush their teeth themsleves, they need some help from their owners and veterinary staff to help keep their teeth clean.  Signs of dental disease can include bad breath,  excessive salivation, pawing at the mouth, refusal to eat dry food or loss of appetite, and sensitivity around the mouth.  Our Standard of Care includes dental care for your pet.
Dental disease can cause problems for pets:
  • Bad Breath
  • Tooth Decay
  • Bleeding Gums
  • Tooth and Bone Loss
  • Heart, Liver, and Kidney Damage Due to Bacteria from Periodontal Disease Entering the Bloodstream

Dental Exam and Treatment
To reduce the risk of these dental-related health issues, we offer a dental exam as part of your pet's wellness exam.  Annual dental exams can help prevent dental disease or can determine when professional dental cleaning is necessary.  We offer in-house ultrasonic dental cleaning which is performed under anesthetic.


Dental Radiology
Pets can have a "toothache" just like we do.  Unfortunately, they can't tell us when they hurt.  Often, the pain is hidden.  Dental radiology gives us the capability to take dental x-rays to better identify problem areas in a pet's mouth.  Sometimes, it is necessary to extract diseased teeth.  Our veterinarians can then extract the diseased teeth while your pet is anesthetized for a dental cleaning.
