The Surgical Process…
Prior to surgery, each patient receives a thorough physical examination to identify any existing medical conditions that might endanger your pet’s health. Because not all problems can be detected on examination, we also perform pre-anesthetic blood testing. These tests not only give us a more complete picture of your pet’s health but also allow us to tailor an anesthetic regime that is specific for your pet.
Dr. El-Akbawy proudly accepts referrals from local Veterinary Hospitals and in many occasions is requested to perform surgeries at other facilities. Pain management is a part of our pre-operative, intra-operative, and post-operative anesthetic and medical protocol. We urge you to discuss operative pain management options with our staff.
