These surgeries are far less invasive and help your pet have a smoother recovery. Some of the endoscopic procedures we perform include:

Making Safety A Priority for All Our Cat and Dog Surgeries
It’s natural to have concerns about your pet’s surgery. Yet, by bringing them to an AAHA-accredited animal hospital, you’ve already given them the best chance at a speedy, uncomplicated recovery. Here are some of the safety measures we take with every procedure:
Pre-anesthetic exam and blood work
This first step is crucial for ensuring your pet is healthy enough to undergo surgery. We’ll check the health of their kidneys and liver, which play an essential role in metabolizing the anesthesia.
IV catheter placement
The catheter supplies your cat or dog with needed fluids to help them stay hydrated and regulate their blood pressure.
Vitals monitoring
Our advanced equipment monitors your pet’s heart rate and rhythm, pulse oximetry, respiration rate, and more. If we notice any changes, we can take immediate action to stabilize your pet.
Dedicated technician
A veterinary technician is with your pet, monitoring their progress, from the very start of anesthesia through their recovery.
Pain management
In cats and dogs, pain isn’t just uncomfortable; it causes stress that can slow the healing process. That’s why we administer pain medications before, during, and after surgery, so your pet wakes with minimal discomfort or stress.
