Veterinary Surgery
in Canton, IL

While spays and neuters are considered surgical procedures, they are by far the most frequent and common surgeries performed by our veterinarians. As such, our entire team is trained on taking every precaution to keep pets safe and monitored before, throughout, and after surgery.

We will be able to provide you with a recommendation on the best time to spay or neuter your pet depending on age, breed, and physical condition.

The benefits of spaying or neutering are significant. In addition to minimizing overpopulation, these procedures can protect against health problems such as certain cancers and infections. Generally, the effects of the procedure on a pet’s demeanor are overwhelmingly positive, reducing unwanted behavior and breeding instinct, making them less likely to stray far from home, and having no impact on the pet’s ability to play or learn.

We will discuss this procedure during your pet’s wellness visit at the appropriate age.

Laser surgery is a minimally invasive alternative to traditional surgery. Whereas traditional surgery uses a scalpel or scissors to make incisions, a surgical laser uses a powerful beam of light to remove tissue and seal blood cells and nerve endings as it cuts. In this way, laser surgery reduces pain, swelling, blood loss, and risk of infection to promote a quick recovery and less trauma for your pet.
