Postoperative Care & Surgical Procedures
After your pet has surgery, the importance of post-operative care in terms of comfort, safety, and rehabilitation cannot be overstated. The benefits of good post-op care extend beyond healing: it helps to decrease the likelihood of additional surgical procedures being required. Post-recovery treatment is critical for a successful outcome.
All pets are kept for observation after the operation while the anesthesia wears off. Most pets recover from simple operations by late afternoon. Some cases, such as more complicated orthopedic treatments, may require pets to be kept overnight. We keep an eye on pets for any potential issues and only allow them to go home when we are confident it is okay to do so.
