Surgery Day: Arrival
You bring your fasting pet in the morning. We perform a final examination, place an IV catheter and prepare anesthesia.
Anesthesia Induction
Your pet receives gentle induction. Anesthesia is then maintained with isoflurane inhalation – highly controllable and gentle.

The procedure is performed in our sterile surgical suite. A staff member continuously monitors all of your pet's vital parameters.
Recovery Phase
After surgery, your pet is monitored in a warm, quiet environment until fully stable. Pain medication is administered.
Pickup & Aftercare
You receive detailed instructions for home care. Follow-up appointments for wound healing and suture removal are scheduled.
Common Procedures in Detail
Information about our most frequently performed operations.
Spaying/Neutering Dogs & Cats
Spaying/neutering is a routine procedure that prevents unwanted pregnancy and can prevent certain diseases. In males, the testicles are removed; in females, the ovaries (and possibly the uterus) are removed.
Small incision, short surgery time, quick recovery
Abdominal incision, 10-14 days until suture removal
Tumor Removal
Skin tumors are common in older animals. Not every lump is malignant, but early removal and histological examination provide peace of mind. The earlier a tumor is detected, the better the chances of recovery.
Foreign Body Surgery
Dogs and cats sometimes swallow toys, socks, bones or other objects. If these don't pass naturally, surgical removal from the stomach or intestines is necessary – often as an emergency procedure.
Repeated vomiting, loss of appetite, abdominal pain, constipation or diarrhea
Tips for the Post-operative Period
Proper home care is essential for complication-free healing.
No running, jumping or climbing stairs for at least 10 days
Body suit or collar prevents licking and scratching of the suture
Check daily for redness, swelling or discharge
Administer pain medication and antibiotics as prescribed
Light food on surgery day, normal diet thereafter
Suture removal after 10-14 days, come earlier if abnormalities
