Before the procedure, we conduct necessary diagnostics such as bloodwork or imaging. On the day of surgery, your pet is continuously monitored by our trained team from induction through recovery.

Frequently Asked Questions
How should I prepare my pet for surgery?
We’ll provide specific instructions before your pet’s procedure. Typically, pets should fast (no food) after midnight the night before surgery, unless otherwise directed. Water is usually allowed up until morning.
Is anesthesia safe for my pet?
Will my pet be in pain after surgery?
Can I take my pet home the same day?
For most routine surgeries, yes, your pet will go home the same day once they’re fully awake and stable. For complex or orthopedic surgeries, your veterinarian will discuss appropriate discharge timing and recovery expectations.
