ANESTHESIA

Safe anesthesia is an essential component of many veterinary procedures, including pet surgery, dental care, and spay & neuter procedures. Our team follows strict safety protocols to ensure every pet remains stable, comfortable, and carefully monitored throughout the procedure.

Each anesthetic plan is customized based on your pet's health status, age, and the specific procedure being performed. Pre-anesthetic bloodwork is recommended to evaluate organ function before sedation.

Key Anesthesia Safety Measures Include

  • Comprehensive pre-anesthetic examinations and testing to evaluate overall health before procedures.
  • Individualized anesthetic protocols tailored to each patient's medical history and needs.
  • Continuous monitoring of vital signs including heart rate, oxygen levels, and blood pressure.
  • Advanced anesthesia equipment and monitoring technology to ensure patient safety.
  • Dedicated recovery monitoring to ensure a smooth and safe awakening after procedures.

Answers to the Most Common Questions that pet parent’s ask us!

Why does my dog or cat require anesthesia?

We utilize anesthesia to support your pet's safety and comfort by managing pain and discomfort during medical and surgical treatments. Anesthesia allows dogs and cats to remain still, which helps our veterinary team safely perform surgical procedures, professional dental cleanings, and routine spays or neuters.

How do you make sure anesthesia is safe for my specific pet?

We customize every anesthetic protocol to meet the individual needs of your dog or cat. Our team reviews your pet's age, breed, health history, and current physical condition to design a tailored plan appropriate for their specific procedure.

What is pre-anesthetic bloodwork and why is it recommended?

Pre-anesthetic bloodwork is a foundational screening performed before administering anesthetic agents. Testing your pet's blood allows us to evaluate internal organ function specifically the liver and kidneys to verify that their body can properly metabolize and clear the medications, helping to reduce anesthetic risks.

How is my pet observed while they are under anesthesia?

A veterinary team member monitors your pet continuously from the initiation of anesthesia through the recovery phase. We utilize modern clinical monitoring equipment to track important health markers, including heart rate, respiratory rate, blood pressure, and oxygen saturation.

Will someone watch my pet after the procedure?

Yes. Our team continues to closely observe your dog or cat after their procedure is complete. We supervise the recovery process to help ensure your pet remains stable and comfortable as they wake up.
