At Ivy Pets, we care about your pet and take all precautions so that your pet has a safe surgical procedure.
Pre-Surgical Evaluation
- Physical Exam: A thorough physical exam is essential to assess your pet’s overall health and identify any potential surgical risks.
- Blood Tests: These help us evaluate your pet’s organ function (e.g., liver and kidney) to ensure your pet is healthy enough for surgery.
- Anesthesia Plan: Customized anesthesia protocols are created based on your pet’s health, age, and the type of surgery.
Anesthesia and Monitoring
- Anesthetic Safety: Modern anesthetic drugs and monitoring equipment ensure that anesthesia is safe for your pet.
- One of our trained veterinary technicians will monitor your pet’s heart rate, breathing, oxygen levels, and temperature during the procedure.
- Pain Management: Pain relief is administered before, during, and after surgery to ensure your pet’s comfort and recovery.
Sterile Environment
- We follow strict aseptic techniques to keep our surgical environment and equipment clean and sterile.
Trained Surgical Team
- Our veterinarians and support teams are trained in the latest techniques and safety protocols. Their expertise contributes to the success of the procedure.
Post-Surgical Care
- We monitor your pet closely as they recover from anesthesia, and we may recommend additional pain management, wound care, and restricted activity to allow healing.
- Pet Parents are provided with clear instructions for home care, including how to manage pain medications, monitor for complications, and ensure a safe recovery.
