Small Animal Surgery

At Prebbleton Veterinary Hospital, we provide a wide range of surgical services for cats and dogs — from routine procedures to more complex operations. Our experienced veterinary surgeons are dedicated to delivering compassionate and effective care to ensure the best possible outcome for your pet.

With a focus on patient comfort and wellbeing, we use surgical techniques and modern monitoring equipment to provide high-quality care before, during, and after every procedure.

Soft Tissue Surgery

Our team performs a variety of soft tissue surgeries including desexing (spaying and neutering), lump removals, wound repairs, and abdominal procedures. Each operation is carefully planned and tailored to your pet’s needs, using pain management and gentle handling throughout.

Orthopaedic Surgery

For pets with fractures, ligament injuries, or joint conditions, our hospital is equipped to handle a range of orthopaedic procedures. Our experienced veterinarians work to restore mobility and comfort, helping your pet return to their active, happy life as quickly as possible.

Anaesthesia & Monitoring

Your pet’s safety is our top priority. Every surgical patient is closely monitored by our trained veterinary nurses and monitoring equipment. We also offer pre-anaesthetic testing and individual anaesthetic plans to help ensure every procedure is as safe and smooth as possible.

Post-Operative Care

Recovery is just as important as the procedure itself. We provide detailed home care instructions, pain relief, and follow-up checks to make sure your pet heals comfortably and minimise complications. Our team is always available to answer any questions or concerns during recovery.
