Our Commitment to Your Pet’s Well-being

At Bartram Trail Veterinary Hospital, we understand that surgery can be a stressful time for both you and your pet. Our dedicated team is committed to providing comprehensive surgical care in a safe and compassionate environment. Our experienced veterinarians perform a wide range of surgical procedures tailored to meet your pet’s needs including but not limited to spays, neuters, bladder surgeries, intestinal surgeries, and soft tissue surgeries (e.g., mass removal, exploratory surgery). For highly complex orthopedic procedures or other advanced surgical needs, we refer cases to board-certified veterinary surgeons at Veterinary Orthopaedic and Mobility Center ,  BluePearl Veterinary Specialists, and Capital Veterinary Specialists to ensure your pet receives the highest level of expertise available. This collaborative approach guarantees that your pet’s surgical needs are met with precision and expertise. Our veterinarians have extensive experience performing surgeries and regularly attend continuing education courses to stay at the forefront of veterinary surgical advancements.

Comfort and Safety During Anesthesia

Your pet’s safety is our top priority. We use state-of-the-art anesthesia machines that are regularly calibrated to deliver safe and precise levels of oxygen and anesthesia. During every procedure, we utilize advanced monitoring equipment to closely track vital signs like blood pressure and oxygen levels, similar to what’s used in human hospitals. Additionally, our skilled technicians provide continuous hands-on monitoring throughout every procedure. We maintain a comfortable environment for your pet by using warm water blankets to help regulate body temperature during anesthesia. Smaller patients recover in a heated kennel for additional warmth and comfort. For optimal patient care, we strongly recommend intravenous (IV) catheter placement for all surgical procedures. This allows for immediate administration of medications if needed and precise fluid delivery to maintain proper blood pressure. Our veterinarians utilize various pain management strategies, including pain medication administered during surgery and long-lasting pain medication for post-operative comfort at home.
