Compassionate Surgical Care for Your Pet

We know that when your pet needs surgery, it can be a stressful and emotional time for both you and your furry family member.

Our experienced veterinary team is committed to easing your mind by ensuring your pet’s safety and well-being throughout the surgical process.

Excellence in Surgical Standards

We uphold the highest standards of surgical care by combining the expertise of our veterinarians with state-of-the-art facilities and equipment.

Whether your pet needs routine spaying or neutering in Augusta, or more complex surgical procedures, we are dedicated to providing the best possible care.

What to Expect

Pre-Surgical Preparation

Before surgery, we perform a pre-surgical examination and create a customized anesthetic plan tailored to your pet’s individual needs.

Monitoring During Surgery

We closely monitor your pet during the procedure and throughout recovery, ensuring their comfort and well-being at all times.

Immediate Post-Operative Care

After surgery, our team delivers watchful post-operative care and offers guidance for a smooth recovery.

Pain Management

Pets, like humans, can experience pain post-surgery. Our post-surgery protocol includes oral anti-inflammatories and other pain management treatments, tailored to each case for optimal relief.

Suture Care

Most surgeries involve absorbable sutures beneath the skin. Skin stitches, if needed, are removed 10 to 14 days post-surgery.

Home Care Instructions

Postoperative care includes monitoring for swelling or discharge, restricting activity, and refraining from baths. At St. Francis Animal Hospital, we’re here to address any questions or concerns you may have so that your beloved friend can return to their happy, healthy self as quickly as possible.
