What to Expect with Your Pet’s Surgery
Before any procedure, our veterinarian performs a full physical exam to ensure your pet is healthy enough for anesthesia. We recommend bloodwork for every patient and run complete blood panels for seniors or pets with existing medical conditions. Our in-house analyzers allow us to get fast results and proceed confidently.
Safety is central to every surgery performed at our Zion animal hospital. From start to finish, your pet is monitored closely by trained team members and supported with modern equipment. During surgery, we monitor:
- Body temperature
- Blood pressure
- Heart rate and rhythm
- Oxygen levels
- Comfort level and anesthetic depth
To keep pets stable, we use IV catheters for fluid support and to promote smoother recovery. Patients rest on heated tables, and warm blankets help reduce the risk of hypothermia after anesthesia.
We stay in touch throughout the day, keep you updated on how your pet is doing, and schedule a pickup time once they’re waking up comfortably. When your pet goes home, you’ll receive clear instructions along with the medications they need to rest and heal safely. Our team is always available to answer questions and guide you through the aftercare process.
