From routine to advanced surgical procedures, our practice offers safe and effective options using state-of-the-art equipment and best practices.
At Seventy First Animal Hospital, we understand that you are probably nervous about submitting your pet to any type of surgical procedure.
Our compassionate and caring professionals monitor your pet before, during, and after surgery and take exceptional care to ensure your pet's safety and complete recovery.
What to Expect
Most surgery patients will need to be admitted by 8:00 am unless instructed otherwise by their veterinarian. Our team will confirm the procedure(s) being done, go over the treatment plan, have you fill out the Surgery/Anesthesia Consent Form, and make sure we have good phone numbers where we can reach you during the day. We typically discharge our surgery patients after 6 pm, one of our team members will call you after your pet is awake to give you an exact time and update you on how your pet did. This allows the doctor time to discuss any further pertinent details about the procedure that was performed and answer any questions you may have.

State-of-the-art surgical procedures that are safe and effective.
Anesthesia
Our experienced team takes anesthesia very seriously and utilizes a safe, multi-modal approach for each animal we treat. We use a combination of pre-op assessments, modern anesthetic agents, and the latest anesthetic monitoring equipment to keep your pet safe, and the risks of surgery as low as possible.
Soft Tissue Surgery
Our veterinarians perform a wide range of soft tissue surgeries that involve your pet's internal organs, body wall, masses or tumors and hernias or other defects. Common veterinary soft tissue surgeries include spay/neuters, mass/tumor removals, intestinal foreign body removal, laceration and wound repair, eye surgery, and more.
ACL Repair
A CCL (cranial cruciate ligament) repair is one of the most common orthopedic surgeries performed in dogs. This type of tear causes instability in the knee joint, which can lead to abnormal movement and debilitating arthritis if left untreated. Count on our veterinary team to perform your dog's CCL repair and get them on the road to recovery.
Mass Removal
Masses are a common condition in pets that can range in size and cause. Mass removals typically require anesthesia, allowing us to remove the mass in question effectively and painlessly. Once the mass is removed, our veterinary team will use key diagnostic processes to diagnose your pet's mass and determine the best next steps.
Laser Surgery
Many of our procedures are done utilizing our surgical laser; a device that uses a beam of light at a specific wavelength. All laser surgerical procedures are done under the safest conditions; monitored by EKGs, pulse oximeters, cardiac monitors, and supported by intravenous fluid therapy. Did you know laser surgery also minimizes bleeding, pain, and infection?
Orthopedic Surgery
Our veterinarians routinely perform orthopedic surgeries, which are procedures related to your pet's bones and joints. Common orthopedic pet surgeries include bone fracture repair, cruciate ligament repair, extracapsular and TPLO techniques, leg or toe amputation, patellar luxation repair, and surgeries to treat hip dysplasia, including femoral head ostectomy (FHO).
Dental Surgery
Pets need regular dental checkups to ensure their oral health is in good-standing. But even with good oral hygiene and regular cleanings, your pet may require dental surgery. We administer anesthesia so we can fully access their teeth, gums, and oral tissue. Anesthesia makes it possible to perform dental procedures with less stress and pain for your pet!
