Preparing for Surgery

Preparing for Surgery

Preparation starts with a thorough examination and diagnostics. Before any surgery, we perform blood work and necessary imaging to assess overall health and minimize risk. Our team evaluates each patient’s medical history and creates a personalized anesthesia and pain management plan based on species, breed, age, and condition.

You’ll also receive detailed instructions on how to prepare your pet at home—like fasting requirements and medication guidelines—so everything goes smoothly on surgery day.

Safe and Monitored Surgical Procedures

Once your pet is under anesthesia, our team stays by their side. One of our trained technicians continuously monitors vital signs such as heart rate, oxygen levels, blood pressure, and temperature. Throughout the procedure, your pet’s safety and comfort are always our top priorities.

Every surgery is performed in a sterile environment using modern surgical instruments. Our veterinary team uses techniques that help reduce the risk of complications and promote a faster recovery.

Aftercare and Recovery Support

Recovery is just as important as the surgery itself. As your pet wakes up, they’re moved to a quiet, comfortable recovery space where they’re carefully observed. Our team at Deepwoods Veterinary Services provides post-operative pain relief and reassurance to help reduce anxiety and discomfort.

When it’s time for your pet to return home, we’ll take the time to walk you through a detailed care plan. This includes pain medication, wound care, activity restrictions, and signs to watch for. If you ever have questions after the procedure, we’re just a phone call away.

Personalized Surgical Care for Dogs and Cats

Every pet is different, and surgical care should reflect that. Our approach is always individualized, whether we’re helping a senior cat with a tumor removal or a young pup with a broken leg. We also recognize how important it is to include you—the pet parent—throughout the process. Your insights and observations help us create a smoother experience and a more successful recovery.
