At Maple City Animal Hospital, we offer a variety of elective surgery services to improve your pet's health and quality of life. These procedures, while not medically necessary, are valuable for maintaining your pet's well-being, preventing unwanted behaviors, resolving existing health issues, or enhancing your pet's overall comfort and safety. We focus on providing compassionate care before, during, and after any elective surgery your pet may need.
These common procedures help prevent unwanted pregnancies, reduce the risk of certain health issues, and can improve your pet’s behaviour. Spaying (for females) and neutering (for males) are performed under general anesthesia, with careful monitoring to ensure your pet’s safety throughout the procedure. These surgeries can also help prevent issues such as uterine infections, testicular cancer, and certain hormone-driven behaviors or conditions.
We offer a variety of specialized orthopedic procedures to address issues related to the bones, joints, and ligaments.
These surgeries involve the removal of lumps, tissues, or skin, and can include procedures such as:
If your pet develops a benign or malignant growth, we offer surgical removal to prevent further complications.
We can perform surgeries to repair skin injuries, such as lacerations or abscesses, ensuring proper healing and minimizing scarring.
These procedures are often performed to remove cysts, lipomas, or other growths that may cause discomfort or become problematic.
If your pet develops bladder stones that are causing discomfort or obstructing their urinary tract, surgical removal may be necessary. This procedure, known as cystotomy, involves making an incision to remove the stones from the bladder. After the stones are removed, we send them away to be carefully examined to identify the type and provide recommendations for preventing future stone formation, including changes to diet or lifestyle.
For pets with eye issues like eyelid problems or corneal injuries, we offer specialized ocular surgeries to restore function and comfort. This includes procedures such as eyelid surgery for entropion (inward rolling of the eyelids) or corneal surgery for repairing damaged eye tissue or eyelid mass removal.
Prior to any elective surgery, we conduct a thorough exam to ensure your pet is in good health and prepared for the procedure. We will discuss any concerns you may have and provide instructions on how to prepare your pet, including fasting before surgery.
To assess the suitability of the patient for the anesthesia we typically will recommend bloodwork to monitor organ function, clotting ability and signs of potential issues that could arise.
During the procedure, your pet will be placed under general anesthesia and closely monitored by our skilled veterinary team. We use the latest anesthetic protocols and equipment to ensure your pet's safety and comfort throughout the surgery.
After the surgery, we provide detailed aftercare instructions to ensure a smooth recovery. This may include pain management, limited activity, and follow-up visits to monitor healing. Our team will be available to answer any questions and ensure your pet recovers as comfortably and efficiently as possible.
We are committed to providing high-quality elective surgeries with the highest standards of care. Whether a routine spay or neuter, an orthopedic procedure, or more complex soft tissue surgery, we are here to guide you through the process and ensure your pet receives the best possible treatment. Your pet's health and comfort are our top priority, and we are here to support you every step of the way.
