Frequently Asked Questions
What instructions should I follow before my pet's surgery?
Withhold all food after 10:00 PM the night prior to surgery. Fresh water may remain available until morning. Bring your pet to the clinic between 7:30 AM and 8:30 AM on surgery morning.
How do you manage pain before, during, and after surgery?
We employ multi-modal analgesia: administering pain medications prior to the first incision, infiltrating surgical sites with local anesthetics, and sending you home with veterinary-specific NSAIDs and analgesics.
When will I be updated on my pet's condition on surgery day?
Our surgical nurse will call you as soon as your pet is awake, comfortable, and resting smoothly in recovery to update you on the outcome and arrange your afternoon discharge appointment.
