Our comprehensive range of surgical procedures

Female Dog/Cat Spay

A common procedure to remove the ovaries and uterus. This prevents unwanted pregnancies, eliminates heat cycles, and reduces the risk of certain cancers.

Male Dog/Cat Neuter

The surgical removal of the testicles. This common procedure prevents reproduction, helps reduce roaming, and lowers the risk of certain cancers.

Cryptorchid Neuter

A more complex neuter to remove one or both testicles that have not descended into the scrotum. This is crucial for preventing testicular cancer and torsion.

Umbilical Hernia Repair

A procedure to correct a common defect where abdominal contents protrude through the body wall at the belly button. This prevents potential organ entrapment.

Lump Biopsies & Removal

We surgically remove or sample skin and subcutaneous masses. A biopsy is then analyzed by a lab to identify the lump and determine the best treatment plan.

Laceration Repairs

Surgical cleaning and suturing of wounds or cuts. This essential care prevents infection, minimizes scarring, and helps your pet's skin heal properly and quickly.

Eyelid Nodule Removal

A delicate procedure to remove small growths from the eyelid margin. This prevents the nodule from rubbing on the cornea, which can cause pain and ulceration.

Cherry Eye Correction

A surgical technique to reposition and secure a prolapsed tear gland in the third eyelid. This is vital for restoring normal tear production and eye health.

Cranial Cruciate Ligament Injury (TPLO / Extra-capsular / Tightrope®)

Advanced orthopedic surgery to stabilize the knee (stifle) joint after a ligament tear. This procedure helps to relieve pain and restore mobility.

Medially Luxating Patella Stabilization

An orthopedic procedure to correct a 'slipping kneecap.' This surgery realigns the patella to relieve pain, prevent arthritis, and improve the leg's function.

Vulvoplasty

A reconstructive surgical procedure to remove excess skin folds around the vulva. This helps to prevent recurring skin infections, irritation, and urinary issues.

Prophylactic Gastropexy

A preventative surgery for high-risk large breed dogs, often done at time of spay or neuter, that tacks the stomach to the body wall. Highly recommended to help prevent life-threatening bloat (GDV).

Aural (Ear) Hematoma Repair

A procedure to drain a blood-filled pocket in the ear flap (pinna). Sutures are placed to relieve pressure, prevent refilling, and avoid ear disfigurement.

Digit Amputation

Surgical removal of a toe. This is often necessary due to severe trauma, a tumor, or deep infection, helping to relieve pain and prevent the spread of disease.

Intestinal Foreign Body

An emergency surgery to remove an object that your pet has swallowed and is now stuck in the intestines. This procedure is life-saving and prevents perforation.

Bladder Stone Removal (Cystotomy)

A surgical procedure to open the bladder and remove mineral stones (uroliths). This is essential for relieving pain, blockages, and chronic urinary infections.

Enucleation

The surgical removal of the eye. This procedure is performed to relieve pain from severe, untreatable conditions such as advanced glaucoma, trauma, or cancer.
