Safe Anesthesia for Pets
The comfort and safety of our patients are always our primary concerns. We take anesthesia seriously and use a multi-modal approach when treating patients. We rely on a combination of modern anesthetic agents and anesthetic monitoring patients to minimize the risks of surgery and keep patients safe.
Our surgery and anesthesia protocols also provide pain control, minimize side effects, and help patients recover faster without complications. When you choose the team at PetNest Animal Hospital for your furry family member’s surgery, you can rest assured that they will be in skilled and compassionate hands from the moment you drop them off until it’s time to pick them up. And we’ll be here for you to address any questions or concerns you may have while your pet recovers.
