Pre-Surgical Care
What to Expect During Surgery
All pets undergoing surgery will have their blood pressure, heart rate, respiratory rate, and blood oxygen levels monitored by a veterinary technician to keep them safe and comfortable during the entire process. On the day of surgery, our staff will also ensure that we have the most up-to-date contact information when you drop off your pet, and we will keep you informed about their condition and progress.
Post-Surgical Care
Your pet’s care and comfort is our top priority. We utilize various pain management techniques to aid in your pet’s recovery. The post-operative pain management plan will include pain medication to reduce discomfort and encourage a speedy recovery. This plan will include at-home pain medication to keep your pet as comfortable as possible. A veterinary technician will provide you with instructions on how to manage your pet’s post-operative care.
We are more than happy to provide you with more information and answer your questions. Call us today at (309) 830-6454 to learn more about our surgical procedures and protocols.
