SAFETY IS THE FIRST (AND MOST IMPORTANT) STEP

As a pet parent, it’s natural for you to be concerned about your pet’s safety. That’s why we make safety and pain management our highest priorities and follow a strict set of protocols before, during, and after every procedure.

CUSTOMIZED ANESTHESIA

• Before placing your pet under anesthesia, our team conducts a thorough exam and blood work to evaluate their condition and check for problems. This is an essential step for minimizing risk.
• Following the exam, we need to measure out the doses for the anesthesia, medications, and fluids your pet will be given during surgery to keep them stable and healthy.

ADVANCED HEALTH MONITORING

• Once your pet is anesthetized, they will be connected to our state-of-the-art monitoring equipment. This equipment keeps tabs on their vital signs and lets us know if we need to adjust your pet’s anesthesia. A technician keeps a close watch to make sure your pet’s heart rate, respiratory rate, blood pressure, oxygen saturation, and temperature are all normal.
• All patients are kept warm during surgery, since being under anesthesia causes the body temperature to drop.
