YOUR PET IS IN SAFE AND CARING HANDS

To ensure the highest level of safety for your pet during surgery, The Grove Animal Hospital employs the following protocols:

  • Before your pet goes into surgery, we perform a pre-anesthetic exam and run bloodwork to evaluate organ function.
  • Your pet will be connected to an intravenous catheter to receive fluids, so they can stay hydrated and maintain a healthy blood pressure throughout surgery.
  • Our surgical table is heated during the procedure so your pet can maintain a safe body temperature.

Our surgical team uses ECG for monitoring heart activity, along with a blood pressure monitor, CO2, pulse oximeter, and other monitoring devices to ensure your pet is safe.
