SURGICAL SERVICES

Veterinary Surgery
Our Veterinarians are trained in state-of-the-art surgical techniques should your pet require
a surgical procedure. We offer a full range of soft
tissue surgeries from routine spays and neuters to more advanced
procedures.
We perform
surgeries using a laser to increase comfort for your pet's
post operative recuperation. Our
EKG and Pulse Oximetry equipment can monitor your
Pet's heart rate and vital signs
to better determine how
well your Pet is responding to treatment and during
surgical procedures. We also maintain an extensive
referral service for those procedures requiring specialized training and
equipment.

Veterinary Orthopedics
We offer specialized orthopedic procedures such as Tibial
Plateau Leveling Osteotomies (TPLO) to correct ruptured ligaments in the
knee. TPLO surgery has been shown to be very successful in restoring full
function and preventing further joint degeneration and can be performed on any size
dog.

The tibial plateau leveling osteotomy (TPLO), involves making a curved cut in the top of the
tibia bone (osteotomy) to include the tibial plateau. The tibial plateau is then rotated along the
curved osteotomy in order to level the slope. A plate
and screws are used to hold the tibial plateau in
place so that the bone can heal well.
Veterinary
Laparoscopy & Thoracoscopy
Granite City
Pet Hospital is now offering laparoscopy and thoracoscopy. Minimally invasive surgeries
reduce the surgical insult and would seem to be preferred over traditional open
approaches for any operation that can be performed by laparoscopy. Research
studies have documented decrease stress ourselves as we believe it to be less
invasive. The surgeon can also see the tissue field better and can easily
record these images. Minimally invasive surgical treatments have dramatically
advanced patient care for people, and companion animals practice is following
this trend.

Veterinary Endoscopy
Endoscopy is a medical procedure that enables us to
look at the gastrointestinal tract using a thin, flexible tube with a tiny
camera at the tip. Within the tube is a channel that allows the
passage of a variety of diagnostic instruments for examination and biopsy.
Veterinary Endoscopy allows
definitive evaluation of the lining of the esophagus, stomach, small
intestine, and colon. Small samples of these areas can be taken and
then analyzed in order to determine the exact nature of your
pet's problem.
