Spaying or Neutering is very important in controlling the pet population as well as reducing unwanted behaviors. Our goal is to not only spay or neuter your pet but have the process be as easy and pain-free for them as possible. We take a number of precautions to be sure that happens. For example, we place an IV catheter in every patient which provides fluids before, during, and after anesthesia. It would be malpractice for your doctor to put you under general anesthesia without fluids. This plays an important role in providing comfort after surgery as well as preventing kidney disease in the future.

Our doctors wear a sterile gown and gloves and use a sterile instrument and suture pack for each surgery. We have a dedicated surgery room which is cleaned specifically for this purpose. Each pet has their blood pressure, oxygen level, temperature, heart rate and rhythm measured throughout surgery to ensure safety and ideal anesthetic depth. We also focus on pain management by providing 3 different pain medications during surgery and we send your pet home with a few days as well. All the sutures we use are under the skin and dissolve on their own so they don’t have any sutures to lick. Your pet comes into the hospital in the morning and goes home that same afternoon and most are back to their normal active selves by the following afternoon.

Your pet’s spay or neuter is likely to be the only surgery they will have their entire life so be sure it is performed the way they would choose.
