Elective and Non Elective Surgeries in Mesa, AZ
When it comes to the health of our furry friends, sometimes surgery is necessary. Elective surgeries, such as spaying and neutering, can prevent health issues down the line. Non-elective surgeries, such as tumor removals, can be life-saving. It's important to discuss all options with your veterinarian and make the best decision for your pet's health.

Who surgery is for
Dogs and cats may need surgery for many reasons, from planned procedures such as spay and neuter to removing lumps, repairing wounds, treating injuries or addressing problems found with imaging. Soft-tissue and orthopedic procedures are performed in-house. Before recommending surgery, your veterinarian will examine your pet, review lab results and explain the options, so you can make the best decision for your pet. We encourage you to ask questions at any point, and we will give you written instructions for the days before and after the procedure.
What happens on surgery day
- Follow the fasting instructions we give you, and bring your pet in at the scheduled drop-off time.
- Your veterinarian examines your pet, and pre-anesthetic lab work is checked.
- Anesthesia and pain control are tailored to your pet, and vital signs are monitored throughout the procedure.
- Your pet recovers in a quiet area while our team watches them closely.
- At pickup, we explain medications, incision care and activity limits, and schedule a recheck if needed.
