Surgery

Are you feeling anxious about your pet’s upcoming surgery?

Bringing a family member in for surgery can be stressful. At Waterdown Animal Hospital, we know exactly what you’re going through because we’re pet owners too. Rest assured that we’ll do everything in our power to ensure that your loved one’s procedure is as stress-free as possible.

Pre-Surgical Care

Our surgical care begins with comprehensive preoperative screening, which helps us to reduce the risk of complications for your companion. We’ll also develop a safe, effective plan to keep your pal comfortable and pain-free – before, during and following surgery.

Surgery

Whether routine or complex, your pet’s procedure will be our highest priority. From the moment you arrive, we’ll be there to ease your mind and help keep your loved one calm and relaxed. 

Once safely sedated, our team will complete the surgery as efficiently as possible. As the doctor works, our dedicated support staff will remain present at all times to assist with surgery and closely monitor your pet’s wellbeing. 

After Care

After surgery, we’ll gently relocate your pet to our recovery area, where our team will offer comfort and reassurance. 

When you arrive to bring your pet home, we will go over our aftercare instructions, including a plan for pain management. 

Surgery doesn’t have to be a source of anxiety, especially if you’ve got the compassionate, experienced team at Waterdown Animal Hospital in your corner. Contact us today and let’s discuss how we can help with all of your companion’s surgical care needs.
