Administering Anesthesia
To ensure the comfort and safety of each pet, they will be placed under anesthesia prior to every dog or cat surgery. Our board-certified veterinary anesthesiologist will evaluate your pet’s health and assess their medical history to create an individualized treatment plan and minimize any anesthetic risks.
The veterinary anesthesiologist receives 3-4 years of anesthesia-specific training and is entirely dedicated to overseeing your pet’s health and safety before, during and after their surgery. They administer anesthesia and work closely with our team to ensure your dog or cat remains comfortable throughout the procedure.
