The Veterinary staff prides themselves on providing “state of the art” anesthesia and surgery. This includes intra-operative monitoring by a veterinary anesthetic nurse using heart rate monitoring, heated surgery tables, heated recovery tables and pulse oximetry. Additionally the use of IV fluids, pre operative blood screens and EKG’s, help make anesthesia and surgery as safe as possible.

The Veterinarians here at Sheabel are competent in most all aspects of surgery from spays and neuters, to more complicated intestinal surgery, many orthopedic cases, laser surgery, endoscopy, and most any soft tissue surgery. We have operated on pets ranging from the smallest hamster to a 200-pound large breed dog. We even plated a monkey’s leg once, which made national news! 

There may be an occasion where we feel a board certified surgical specialist would be better suited to perform a procedure. When this occurs, we refer you to the specialist whom we feel is best suited to help your pet.
Most surgeries are performed on an out patient basis. Usually your pet does not eat the night before and is dropped off by 8:00 AM.  Surgeries are performed in the morning and your pet will recover here until sometime after 3:00 PM. We will walk your pet and offer it food and water before going home. You will most likely be given postoperative discharge instructions and any medications for your pet when you pick up.
