Soft Tissue Surgery
At RRVC, we offer a full range of soft tissue surgical services to diagnose and treat conditions affecting your pet’s internal organs, skin, and other non-bony structures. Whether your pet needs a routine procedure or more advanced surgical care, our team is committed to providing safe, effective treatment with a focus on comfort and recovery.
What Is Soft Tissue Surgery?
Soft tissue surgery refers to procedures that do not involve bones or joints. These surgeries address conditions affecting areas such as the skin, gastrointestinal tract, urinary system, reproductive organs, and more.
Common Procedures We Perform
Our soft tissue surgical services include:
- Mass and tumor removal
- Spay and neuter procedures
- Bladder stone removal (cystotomy)
- Gastrointestinal surgery (foreign body removal, exploratory surgery, gastropexy)
- Wound repair and reconstructive surgery
- Ear, eye, and eyelid procedures
- Splenic and liver surgery
Each procedure is tailored to your pet’s individual condition and health needs.
Our Approach to Surgical Care
We prioritize safety, precision, and compassionate care at every step:
- Thorough pre-surgical evaluation including exams and diagnostics
- Advanced anesthesia and monitoring to ensure your pet’s safety
- Sterile surgical techniques to reduce risk of infection
- Pain management protocols for comfort before, during, and after surgery
What to Expect
On the day of surgery, our team will guide you through the process and keep you informed. After the procedure, we provide detailed discharge instructions and are always available to answer questions during recovery.
Recovery and Aftercare
Recovery times vary depending on the procedure, but most pets benefit from:
- Restricted activity while healing
- Medications for pain control and healing support
- Follow-up visits to monitor progress
We may also recommend additional care such as bandage management or dietary adjustments, depending on the surgery performed.
Compassionate Surgical Care You Can Trust
Our goal is to deliver high-quality surgical care while minimizing stress for both you and your pet. From routine procedures to more complex surgeries, we’re here to support your pet’s health every step of the way.
