Surgical Procedure

Bladder Stone Removal

A surgical cystotomy begins with pre-anesthetic bloodwork. If that comes back within acceptable limits, sedation will be administered. Your pet will be intubated and placed on anesthesia gas and IV fluids. After the surgery is performed, your pet will go home with pain medication and an e-collar, if you don't already have one.
