At Ivy Pets, we care about your pet and take all precautions so that your pet has a safe surgical procedure.

Pre-Surgical Evaluation

Physical Exam: A thorough physical exam is essential to assess your pet’s overall health and identify any potential surgical risks.
Blood Tests: These help us evaluate your pet’s organ function (e.g., liver and kidney) to ensure your pet is healthy enough for surgery.
Anesthesia Plan: Customized anesthesia protocols are created based on your pet’s health, age, and the type of surgery.

Anesthesia and Monitoring

Anesthetic Safety: Modern anesthetic drugs and monitoring equipment ensure that anesthesia is safe for your pet.
One of our trained veterinary technicians will monitor your pet’s heart rate, breathing, oxygen levels, and temperature during the procedure.
Pain Management: Pain relief is administered before, during, and after surgery to ensure your pet’s comfort and recovery.

Sterile Environment

We follow strict aseptic techniques to keep our surgical environment and equipment clean and sterile.

Trained Surgical Team

Our veterinarians and support teams are trained in the latest techniques and safety protocols. Their expertise contributes to the success of the procedure.

Post-Surgical Care

We monitor your pet closely as they recover from anesthesia, and we may recommend additional pain management, wound care, and restricted activity to allow healing.
Pet Parents are provided with clear instructions for home care, including how to manage pain medications, monitor for complications, and ensure a safe recovery.
