My pet needs to be spayed/neutered. Isn’t it a simple surgery? Does the skill of the surgeon or the quality of the surgical procedure matter?

Even though these are the most common veterinary surgeries, they can be rather complex procedures. Having a skilled surgeon using modern safety protocols with a licensed veterinary technician as an assistant, high-quality equipment and materials, and modern techniques make these common surgeries both safer and less painful. To ensure the best possible outcome for your pet, we treat these common surgeries as the major procedures they are, with excellent safety protocols and modern surgical techniques. Ask us to learn more about our spay/neuter procedures before scheduling this once-in-a-lifetime procedure.

Can I bring my pet in without an appointment?

We strongly suggest that you make an appointment for your pet. We accommodate walk-in patients as best we can, but emergencies and scheduled appointments are seen first. When calling to schedule your pet’s appointment, our friendly client services team will find a time that will best work with your schedule.
