The Surgery department at Central Texas Veterinary Specialty and Emergency is here to support the incredible bond that exists between pets and owners. We offer state-of-the-art facilities, fully-equipped surgical suites and an expert staff, who remain dedicated to ensuring each patient receives only the most comprehensive and advanced surgical care available.
Experts in their field, our board-certified veterinary surgeons have trained extensively in all avenues of small animal surgery and offer a wide variety of services. Our surgical teams work alongside clients, primary care veterinarians and our in-house specialty services to determine the best treatment plan for each individual patient.
At CTVSEH, safe anesthesia for your dog or cat and continuous monitoring are a priority. We have the latest in anesthetic monitoring equipment including EKG’s, end tidal CO2, oxygen saturation, and blood pressure monitors. We also feel strongly about minimizing our patients’ pain before, during and after surgery. We commonly use epidurals and local anesthetics to decrease the amount of post-operative pain to allow for lower levels of anesthetic use. The majority of surgical patients are prescribed an oral medication to be given at home to help with discomfort.
In most instances, required diagnostics for your cat or dog will be performed the day of the initial consultation. Dependent on the doctors’ surgery schedule and the number of emergencies, surgeries can typically be performed on the day of or the day after the initial exam. Please be prepared to leave your pet with us by bringing any medications or special diets that are currently being given.
