SURGERY

Compassion and Skill

Surgeries and Other In-Patient Care:

Surgeries are scheduled Monday to Friday of each week. At the Sunset Strip Veterinary Clinic, all patients are carefully examined before surgery to ensure a high level of safety.  Pre-anesthetic blood screens are always available to ensure added confidence.  The anesthetic regime we use is tailored to the surgical procedure being performed and to your pet’s specific health requirements. This focus on an individualized anesthesia and pain management protocol helps to comfort your pet during their visit and reduce the risk of adverse effects with anesthesia. Our commitment to minimizing the discomfort associated with surgical procedures using a multi-modal approach helps your pet remain happy, healthy, and ready to return to their normal lifestyle as soon as possible.

On admission to the hospital, your pet will be paired with a registered veterinary technician, who will monitor and optimize the health and comfort of your pet throughout their stay. This dedicated technician will then provide you with all the details and information you need about their stay and how best to care for them at home after surgery.

Our surgical facility also includes:

• Electronic monitoring equipment to assess blood pressure and heart rate during surgery.

• Intravenous fluid therapy for virtually all procedures

• Heated surgical tables for greater comfort and faster, healthier surgical recovery

• Separate, heated recovery rooms for dogs and cats

• Specialized equipment for dental, soft tissue, and ophthalmic procedures.
