What Pet Surgery Covers

Pet surgery covers a wide range of procedures for dogs and cats. Some are routine, spay and neuter surgeries are among the most common veterinary procedures performed every year. Others are more involved, soft tissue surgeries to remove masses, repair wounds, or address internal issues that can't be managed with medication alone.

Every surgery starts with a full exam and diagnostics, including imaging and in-house lab work, so your care team knows what they're working with before your pet goes under anesthesia. Our care teams are Fear Free Certified, and you'll get a full estimate before any procedure, with your approval required before we begin.

Signs Your Pet May Need Surgery

Sometimes the signs are obvious: a visible lump that's growing, a wound that won't close, your cat straining in the litter box with no results. Other times the clues are subtle, and that's when having a relationship with your vet really matters.

Watch for a mass that changes in size or shape over weeks, repeated vomiting or signs of a possible foreign body, difficulty urinating or blood in the urine, and a wound that's deep or not healing with basic care. A complete pre-surgical evaluation helps rule out complications before any procedure moves forward.

Preparing for Surgery Day and Recovery

Preparation starts before surgery day. Your vet will likely recommend pre-surgical bloodwork, run through our in-house reference labs. On the day itself, you'll typically need to withhold food after a certain time the night before, and your care team will give you exact instructions.

Your pet is monitored the entire time, and afterward moves to a recovery area where they're watched closely as anesthesia wears off. When you pick your pet up, your care team walks you through everything: what happened, how to care for the incision, and what warning signs to watch for.
