Surgical Services

About

Our surgical team provides a variety of procedures, including spays/neuters, explanatories, mass removals, and more.


Your pet's health is our biggest concern. Thus, before surgery a thorough exam & bloodwork is completed to determine there are no pre-existing complications.

These tests give us an insight to your pet's health & allow us to tailor their anesthetic protocol.


During surgery, we use state-of-the-art monitoring equipment to ensure your pet is stable, including:

  • Blood pressure & EKG

  • Heart rate & respiration

  • Oxygen saturation

  • Temerature

We also use IV to support the vascular system and provide an open port for rapid medication administration.

Our surgerical assistants work alongside Dr. Buffington, and are trained to observe your pets through the procedure, adjusting when necessary.


Your pet is then heavily monitored during post-operatively ensuring adequate recovery.
