What is Veterinary Surgery?
Veterinary surgery is any medical procedure that involves cutting into the body to treat a health condition or injury. Surgery may be needed for a variety of reasons, from elective procedures like spaying or neutering to more complex surgeries to address injuries, tumors, or organ issues.
At Family Pet Health, we offer a wide range of surgical services designed to address your pet’s needs. We specialize in both soft tissue and orthopedic surgery, ensuring that every pet receives the highest standard of care.
Types of Surgery We Offer
-
Spaying and Neutering: These routine procedures help prevent unwanted pregnancies and contribute to your pet’s overall health and well-being. Spaying and neutering can also prevent certain cancers and health issues, along with reducing the risk of behavioral problems.
-
Soft Tissue Surgery: This includes surgeries on organs, muscles, and skin. Examples include:
- Tumor removal
- Gastrointestinal surgeries (e.g., for blockages or injuries)
- Urinary tract surgeries

- Cruciate ligament repair
- Fracture fixation
- Joint replacement surgery

Emergency Surgery: In cases of trauma, injury, or sudden illness, emergency surgeries may be required. We are equipped to handle urgent situations such as:
- Trauma care (e.g., car accidents or falls)
- Abdominal surgery (e.g., to remove foreign objects or treat internal bleeding)
- Emergency C-sections for pregnant pets
-
Dental Surgery: Severe dental disease may require surgical intervention, such as tooth extractions or oral tumor removal, to preserve your pet’s overall health.
-
Ophthalmic Surgery: Surgical procedures related to the eyes, such as cataract removal or eyelid surgeries, can help restore vision or prevent further discomfort.
Why Surgery is Important for Pet Health
Surgical procedures are often necessary to treat conditions that cannot be managed with medications or other non-invasive treatments. In many cases, surgery can help alleviate pain, improve quality of life, or save your pet’s life. Early intervention through surgery can prevent conditions from worsening, which may lead to more severe complications or chronic health issues down the road.
At Family Pet Health, we recognize the importance of surgery in treating your pet’s health problems and are committed to performing procedures with the utmost care and precision.
Benefits of Veterinary Surgery
- Improved Quality of Life: Surgery can relieve your pet from pain, discomfort, and mobility issues, improving their overall health and happiness.
- Preventing Complications: Many surgical procedures, like tumor removal or fracture repair, can prevent more severe health problems from developing.
- Life-Saving Treatment: In emergency situations, surgery can be the difference between life and death. Prompt surgical intervention can save your pet’s life in cases of trauma, poisoning, or severe illness.
- Restoring Functionality: For pets with injuries, joint problems, or other functional impairments, surgery can restore their ability to walk, run, and play.
