At Rainbow City Pet Clinic, we take pride in the years of surgical experience we offer your pets. However, we understand that referrals to a Specialist is often very costly for pet parents. Therefore, our surgeons have worked hard to provide innovative surgical care for your fur family in order to limit referral to the MOST advanced cases.
Every patient is carefully screened to ensure their health and safety. Anesthetics in our hospital are tailored to your pet.
Our surgical services and facilities include:
- Laser surgery
- Advanced sterilization techniques
- EKG and oxygen saturation monitors
- Intensive after-surgery post-op care
- Heated surgery tables for greater comfort
Our hospital provides soft tissue surgical procedures such as spay/neuter, growth removal, tumor biopsy, laceration repair, urinary bladder surgery and stone removal, abdominal exploratory surgery, oral surgery, and cesarean sections.
Pre-Surgical Care
As part of our commitment to offering the safest care for your pet that we can during its visit for surgery, we will perform a physical examination before anesthesia. We also strongly recommend that a pre-operative blood screen be performed to ensure that the risks of anesthesia to your pet’s health are kept to a minimum. This blood panel allows us to determine if any underlying problems might lead to complications during or after anesthesia, problems that are not always evident on a physical exam.
Patient Monitoring
A trained technician will carefully monitor your pet’s vital signs during surgery. In addition, every patient will have their blood pressure, heart rate, rhythm, and blood oxygen levels monitored to keep their pet safe during the procedure. Communication is also essential to the surgery process; our staff will keep you fully informed about your pet’s condition.
Pain Management
For pain control, we strongly recommend pain medication for your pets in addition to what is provided by the anesthetic. Various forms of pain control are available; the cost will depend on the type of pain control administered and your pet’s weight. In addition, your pet’s individualized pain management plan may include at-home pain medication to keep them as comfortable as possible during their recovery. Our veterinary technicians will walk you through every step, explaining everything you need to know for your pet’s post-surgery care at home.
