Pet Surgery in Pooler, GA
We are here to reassure you and your pet that surgery will be safe, successful, and as pain-free as possible.
My pet needs a surgery
Our pets may need surgery for a variety of reasons and we are experienced in a wide range of orthopedic and soft tissue surgeries. We understand how stressful this time can be for pets and pet parents. We place a strong emphasis on pre-surgical planning and communication to provide a safe and comfortable anesthetic and surgical experience for you and your pet. We provide pre-anesthetic medications to help your pet relax, intravenous fluids for cardiovascular support, and start pain control before the procedure ever begins. Your pet will have three qualified surgery team members monitoring them at all times while they are in our hospital. We will communicate with you in detail upon arrival, directly after the procedure is complete, then again at the time of discharge from our hospital. Constant communication between our staff and you, the client, is ensured to make sure your pet is well cared for through the entire process. Appropriate pain control is always provided following the procedure to make sure everyone is comfortable at home.

If you are looking to have an elective procedure done or have been referred to us by another veterinarian, please call us to schedule an appointment.
