Surgical Services
Welcome to Hiawassee & Clarcona-Ocoee, where we provide a wide range of expert veterinary surgical services to ensure the health and well-being of your beloved pet. In addition to our comprehensive surgical offerings, we also specialize in femoral head ostectomy (FHO). Trust our experienced veterinary team to provide exceptional care and advanced surgical techniques to keep your pet as comfortable and pain-free as possible throughout their procedure and recovery.
Our surgical services encompass a variety of procedures, including:
1. FHO Surgery: Femoral Head Ostectomy (FHO) is a surgical procedure often recommended for pets with certain hip conditions, such as hip dysplasia or severe arthritis. This procedure removes the head of the femur to alleviate pain and improve mobility in your pet.
2. Splenectomy: Our veterinary surgeons are experienced in performing splenectomy, a procedure involving the removal of the spleen. This surgical option is often considered for cases involving splenic tumors, hematoma, or other conditions affecting the spleen.
3. Bladder Stone Surgery: Bladder stones can cause discomfort and urinary complications in pets. Our surgical team is skilled in performing bladder stone removal surgery to eliminate these painful stones and restore normal urinary function.
4. Orthopedic Procedures: We specialize in various orthopedic procedures, including fracture repairs and corrective surgeries for conditions like hip dysplasia or luxating patella. Our advanced surgical techniques and state-of-the-art equipment ensure optimal outcomes and improved quality of life for your pet.
5. Perineal Urethrostomy (PU): In cases of feline lower urinary tract disease (FLUTD) or recurrent urethral obstructions, a perineal urethrostomy may be recommended. Our skilled veterinarians perform this specialized surgical procedure to create a wider urinary opening, improving urination for affected cats.
6. ACL Repairs: Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) injuries are common in dogs. Our experienced surgeons perform ACL repairs to stabilize the knee joint and restore stability and function.
7. Luxating Patella: Luxating patella is a condition where the kneecap dislocates or moves out of its normal position. We offer surgical treatment options to correct this condition, alleviating pain and improving mobility for your pet.
8. Brachycephalic Airway Surgery: Certain dog breeds with brachycephalic (short-nosed) features may experience respiratory difficulties due to compressed airways. Our skilled surgeons can perform corrective procedures to improve their breathing and overall quality of life.
We prioritize your pet’s safety and comfort throughout their surgical journey. Our state-of-the-art hospital is equipped with the latest anesthesia and monitoring technology to ensure a safe and comfortable experience for your pet during their procedure. Our team develops safe and effective anesthetic protocols tailored to your pet’s specific needs, minimizing pain and maximizing comfort.
To further support you and your pet, we offer pre-surgical consultations, where our veterinarians will address any questions or concerns you may have about your pet’s specific surgery. You can also rely on us to provide detailed postoperative care instructions to facilitate a smooth and speedy recovery for your furry friend.
