Surgical Services for Dogs and Cats in Edmonds, WA

Your pet's health and safety are our top priorities, especially when it comes to surgery. The veterinary team at Kestrel Veterinary Hospital is here to provide well-rounded, compassionate care every step of the way.

Our team handles soft tissue surgeries, and we offer a wide range of procedures:

  • Spay and Neuter Surgeries: Essential for population control and reducing reproductive health risks.
  • Mass and Growth Removals: To address lumps or bumps that may impact your pet’s health.
  • Wound Repairs: From minor cuts to more severe injuries, we ensure careful and effective healing.
  • Oral Surgeries: Managing dental health issues with precision, including extractions and other necessary interventions.

Comprehensive Pre-Surgical Evaluations

Before any surgery, we take the time to ensure your pet is fully prepared for their procedure. Every surgical patient is an established client and receives a thorough pre-surgical evaluation.

  • Pre-anesthetic physical examination: to assess your pet's current health.
  • Pre-anesthetic bloodwork: to minimize risks under general anesthesia. This blood work can be performed prior to the date of surgery or in-house the morning of the procedure.

Your Pet’s Safety During Surgery

During surgery, your pet will be cared for by a trained veterinary team that prioritizes safety and comfort.

  • Continuous monitoring by a team member ensures vital signs like heart rate, respiratory rate, oxygen levels, blood pressure, and temperature remain stable.
  • IV catheter placement and fluid support maintain hydration and circulation.
  • Temperature management keeps your pet warm and comfortable throughout the procedure.

Compassionate Post-Surgical Care

Once the surgery is complete, our commitment to your pet’s well-being continues. We never keep pets overnight, so you can bring your pet home the same day.

  • We provide detailed discharge instructions, tailored to your pet’s procedure.
  • We follow up with you the next day to check on your pet’s recovery and address any concerns.
  • We prioritize pain management and comfort, using the best techniques and medications to keep your pet as comfortable as possible.
