SOFT TISSUE SURGERY

Our clinic offers a wide range of soft tissue surgeries, which are procedures not involving bones and can bring significant benefits to pets.

One of the most frequently performed soft tissue surgeries for pets is the removal of masses or lumps. While many of these masses are benign upon removal and examination, occasionally they can prove to be more serious. Swift removal and accurate diagnosis of a lump are crucial for improving your pet's prognosis if the mass is cancerous.

For dogs prone to recurrent ear infections, surgical intervention can mitigate their frequency by enhancing airflow into the ear canal.

Moreover, surgery plays a pivotal role in addressing various eye-related issues. Excessive tearing in your pet's eyes may signify an infection or corneal damage. Surgery can expedite corneal healing with reduced scarring, ultimately improving your pet's vision. In some cases, misaligned eyelashes can harm the cornea, and surgical intervention not only enhances comfort but also diminishes the risk of corneal scarring, leading to long-term visual improvement.
