Are you feeling nervous about your pet’s upcoming surgery?
Bringing a family member in for surgery can be a nerve-wracking experience. At Dogwood Animal Hospital, we understand exactly what you’re going through because we’re pet owners too. Rest assured that we’ll do everything in our power to make your loved one’s procedure as stress-free as possible.
Pre-Surgical Care
Our surgical care begins with comprehensive preoperative screening. These routine tests help to reduce the risk of complications for your pet. We’ll also develop a safe, effective plan to keep your best friend comfortable and pain-free – before, during and following surgery.
Surgery
Whether routine or complex, your pet’s surgery will be our highest priority. From the moment you arrive, we’ll be there to ease your mind, answer your questions and help keep your pet calm and relaxed.
Once safely sedated, our team will complete the procedure as efficiently as possible. As the doctor works, our dedicated support staff will be present at all times, assisting with surgery and closely monitoring your pet’s wellbeing.
After Care
When surgery is finished, your pet will be carefully relocated to our recovery area, where our staff will continue to offer comfort and reassurance.
When you arrive to pick up your pet, we’ll explain our aftercare instructions, including a plan for pain management.
Surgery doesn’t have to be a source of anxiety, especially if you’ve got the experienced, compassionate team at Dogwood Animal Hospital in your corner. Get in touch today and let’s discuss how we can help with all of your companion’s surgical care needs.
