Is Anesthesia Safe for My Pet?
Procedures are much safer with our ability to monitor pets during surgery. Before administering anesthesia, we will perform a thorough physical exam and a blood panel to ensure liver and kidney health to minimize any negative reaction to the anesthesia. If we detect any serious problems, we may recommend postponing surgery. We ask that you make sure your pet has an empty stomach before surgery to reduce the risk of vomiting.
Will My Animal Be In Pain After Pet Soft Tissue Surgery?
While they may not show it in the same ways we do, pets, like humans, experience pain. Pain medications vary based on the type of surgery. Major procedures typically require more pain relief than minor ones.
How Should I Care for My Pet After Surgery?
After your pet has surgery, it’s important to leave the incision alone. Before you leave the office, we will provide all necessary information about your pet’s activity, eating, and rest. If you have any questions or concerns about the healing process, please contact us!
