Understanding Your Pet's Surgical Needs

Whether your pet is a previous patient or new to our practice, we’ll start the process by asking you various questions. Does your pet suffer from chronic conditions like heart disease? Have you noticed a sudden change in your pet’s appetite or behavior? Is your pet dealing with a lingering injury? From there, our staff will conduct an extensive wellness examination.

By having a better understanding of your pet’s external and internal condition, we can recommend a Radford veterinary surgery that improves and protects their well-being. Rest assured that our team takes everything into consideration, including your pet’s age, lifestyle, and medical history. We encourage you to ask questions and voice your concerns, as we never want you to agree to a service that you don’t understand.

Our Comprehensive Approach to Surgery

Over the years, our veterinary practice has improved and adjusted our cat and dog surgical services to better meet the needs of all our patients. That includes surgeries aimed at breed-specific issues and minimally invasive procedures. We also understand that our surgical team’s responsibility doesn’t simply end after your pet’s procedure, which is why we provide comprehensive post-operative care instructions. Whether you have questions on how to keep your pet’s surgical site clean or how to effectively manage your companion’s pain, we’re here for you.

Our extensive Radford veterinary surgery offerings include, but are not limited to:

Soft Tissue Surgery

Soft tissue surgery covers a broad range of surgical procedures that address issues affecting your pet’s organs, muscles, skin, and other soft tissues. Everything from wound repair to spaying and neutering is considered soft tissue surgery. Our experienced and knowledgeable surgical team can effectively handle routine and complex situations.

Laser Surgery

One of the surgical offerings we provide our patients is laser surgery. As opposed to traditional surgery, which uses a scalpel, laser surgery uses a concentrated laser to manipulate soft tissue. One of the greatest benefits of laser surgery is that it seals nerve endings as it cuts, which can significantly reduce post-operative pain and improve overall healing times.

Brachiocephalic Surgery

Brachiocephalic surgery, also known as pug or French bulldog nose surgery, is a procedure that addresses brachycephalic obstructive airway syndrome (BOAS). BOAS is common in dog breeds with flat faces, like pugs and French bulldogs. The procedure surgically corrects structural issues in your pet’s upper airways to improve breathing and their overall quality of life.
