Soft Tissue Surgeries

Common Soft Tissue Surgeries We Provide

Eye Surgeries

Many rescued animals, especially those from difficult backgrounds, may suffer from eye conditions that can impact their vision or cause pain. Common procedures include correcting cherry eye, repairing entropion (where the eyelid rolls inward), and cataract surgeries. These treatments can restore vision and ensure the animal is comfortable and pain-free, significantly impacting their quality of life.

Bladder Surgeries

Bladder issues, such as blockages or bladder stones, are common problems that can cause discomfort and lead to more severe complications if left untreated. Bladder surgeries are often necessary for animals with these conditions, particularly those with recurring urinary tract infections or stones. These surgeries help restore normal bladder function and ensure the animal can live comfortably.

Gastrointestinal (GI) Surgeries

Gastrointestinal issues can be life-threatening for many rescue animals, particularly those that have ingested foreign objects or suffer from congenital conditions. GI surgeries, including foreign body removal and treatment of conditions like intestinal obstructions, are critical in these cases. Prompt intervention is essential to prevent more severe complications and allow the animal to heal and recover fully.

Mass Removals

It’s not uncommon for rescue animals to have benign or malignant growths. Mass removal surgeries are essential for diagnosing and treating tumors, preventing them from growing larger or causing discomfort. Early removal and biopsy of these masses can improve the prognosis and provide peace of mind for both the rescue group and potential adopters.

Hernia Repairs

Hernias, where internal organs push through weak spots in muscle or tissue, is a common issue in many rescue animals. Whether congenital or the result of trauma, hernias can range from minor and manageable to large and dangerous. Hernia repair surgery restores the integrity of the affected area, preventing further complications and ensuring the animal’s overall health.

Specialized Care Tailored to Rescue Animals

Veterinarians who specialize in working with rescue animals understand the particular challenges these animals face. Many rescues come in malnourished, frightened, or traumatized, and they need extra care and patience when undergoing medical procedures. We strive to provide gentle and compassionate care during surgery to minimize stress and help each animal feel as comfortable as possible.

Working with Animal Rescue Groups

We understand the incredible work that animal rescue groups do and are committed to being a trusted partner in helping them achieve their mission. We offer soft tissue surgeries to give every animal the best chance at a healthy and happy life. 

Moreover, we prioritize clear communication with rescue groups throughout the entire process. From the initial diagnosis to the surgery and follow-up care, we ensure that rescue groups are informed about the animal’s condition, the procedure performed, and what to expect during recovery.

Improving Outcomes for Rescued Animals

Soft tissue surgeries play an essential role in rehabilitating many rescue animals, helping restore their health and improve their quality of life. Whether an animal needs surgery for a life-threatening condition or a procedure that enhances their comfort, our clinic is committed to providing expert care. These surgeries are often crucial in preparing rescue animals for adoption, ensuring they are healthy, pain-free, and ready for their new homes.
