Why Choose Safer Pet Surgery?
At Cimarron Animal Hospital, we follow meticulous protocols throughout the procedure to ensure your pet has the safest surgical experience possible. From pre-surgical evaluations to continuous monitoring during recovery, our comprehensive approach is designed with your pet’s well-being in mind.
Pre-Surgical Blood Testing
Pre-anesthetic diagnostics are designed to assess your pet’s overall health and safety in the face of sedative and anesthetic medications. This step ensures that your pet’s liver and kidneys can process the medications used during anesthesia. Unfortunately, many clinics skip this vital step, potentially increasing risks during surgery.
Complete Pre-Surgical Examinations
Every patient undergoes a full physical examination by a licensed veterinarian before receiving sedatives or anesthetics. Unlike some facilities, where tranquilizers may be administered without a thorough evaluation, our process ensures that your pet’s unique needs are fully understood and addressed.
IV Catheter Placement and Fluids
All surgical patients are given an IV catheter to administer fluids during the procedure. This prevents organ damage caused by low blood pressure and allows immediate access to emergency medication if needed. This critical precaution supports your pet’s stability throughout the surgery.
Sevoflurane Anesthesia
We use Sevoflurane, one of the safest anesthetic gases available for both humans and animals. Many clinics use less expensive alternatives that carry higher risks. At Cimarron Animal Hospital, we treat your pets with the same care and quality we want for our own.
ANTI-NAUSEA MEDICATION
Protects your pet from aspiration while under anesthesia and provides a faster recovery of appetite after the procedure.
Dedicated Anesthesia Nurse
A Certified Veterinary Technician is continuously monitoring your pet while under anesthesia, with no other distractions!
Comprehensive Pain Management
Effective pain management is essential for your pet’s comfort and recovery. Our approach includes pain relief before, during, and after surgery. Most patients also go home with additional medication to keep them comfortable. This level of care is often absent in “discount” surgical services.
Continuous Monitoring During Recovery
The recovery phase is critical to your pet’s overall outcome. Our trained surgical nurses monitor your pet’s vitals, temperature, and pain levels throughout this period, ensuring they receive the attention and care they need to recover comfortably.
Questions to Ask Before Choosing a Surgery Provider
