Types of Pet Surgeries We Offer
In addition to routine spay and neuter services, Forever Vets offers a wide range of surgical procedures to treat both emergency and chronic conditions:
A cystotomy is performed to create an opening in the urinary bladder, most commonly to remove bladder stones. It can also be used to treat tumors, blood clots, trauma, or obtain biopsy samples. Left untreated, bladder issues can cause pain, infections, and even life-threatening complications.
Dogs and cats are naturally curious, which sometimes leads to swallowing objects they shouldn’t, like toys, rawhides, sticks, or bones. When an obstruction occurs, emergency surgery may be required to remove the object and prevent dangerous damage to the digestive tract.
Our advanced orthopedic surgical services help pets with bone fractures, joint problems, and degenerative or congenital conditions. From hips and elbows to knees and shoulders, our team uses state-of-the-art techniques to restore mobility and help your pet return to their active lifestyle.
Skin or internal masses can be caused by tumors, infections, cysts, or parasites. While not all masses are cancerous, they should always be evaluated by a veterinarian. Surgical removal may be necessary to prevent pain, infection, or further complications.
- Cherry Eye: A prolapsed tear gland that appears as a red mass in the corner eye. Surgery is needed to reposition the gland, preserving tear function and preventing chronic dry eye.
- Entropion: An inward rolling of the eyelid that causes irritation or corneal ulcers. Surgery realigns the eyelid to restore comfort and protect eye health.
Chronic, severe ear infections sometimes require surgery to restore comfort and prevent recurrence. Forever Vets offers:
- Lateral Ear Canal Ablation: Removal of the lateral ear canal to stop discharge and infection.
- Total Ear Canal Removal (Bulla Osteotomy): Complete removal for advanced, irreversible infections.
- Aural Hematoma Repair: Draining and correcting blood buildup in the ear flap to restore normal function.
