Your pet’s comfort and safety are paramount during surgery. We use the latest in anesthesia technology and pain management protocols to minimize discomfort and ensure a smooth procedure. During the surgery, our veterinary team continuously monitors your pet’s vital signs, such as heart rate, temperature, and oxygen levels, to ensure their safety and well-being. Our goal is to make the entire process as stress-free and comfortable as possible for your pet.
