General Veterinary Surgery Services
General veterinary surgery is used to treat a sick pet following a diagnosis that indicates a surgical treatment.
General surgery also includes elective procedures, such as spay and neuter surgeries which act as preventative care for pets. In addition to a variety of additional surgical procedures, our general veterinary surgery services include the following:
- Spay and Neuter
- Mass Removal
- Cystotomy (Bladder Stone)

If your pet requires a different procedure, our veterinary surgeons at Insight Veterinary Wellness Center also provide emergency surgery and specialized operations.
Preparing For Veterinary Surgery
Prior to your pet’s surgical appointment, we will perform a thorough physical examination and run blood tests to ensure your pet is healthy enough to safely undergo anesthesia and an operation.
At this time, we will also discuss pre-op and post-op care instructions with you, which may include dietary restrictions, activity limitations, medications, and wound care.
Surgery Pain Management For Pets
We strive to keep pets as comfortable as possible at all times, and limiting their pain before, during, and after surgery is essential to their happiness, health, and recovery speed. Based on your pet’s health, medical history, and surgical procedure, we’ll provide you with recommendations to alleviate pain and speed recovery following surgery.
This might include temporary lifestyle adjustments and pain medications.
