Blackford Vet Surgery Referral

Through our Internal Medicine partnership, we provide Ultrasound Imaging for diagnostic purposes, including abdominal organ evaluation, cardiac assessments, and guided biopsies. This non-invasive imaging aids in diagnosing conditions like organ disease, tumors, or fluid accumulations.

Although a referral-based clinic, we provide Emergency Stabilization for critically ill or injured patients referred after initial primary care assessment. Our board-certified surgeons assess conditions like traumatic injuries, toxin exposure, or surgical emergencies to implement immediate, advanced care protocols.

Following advanced surgeries, we provide Hospitalization & 24-Hour Monitoring to address potential complications and ensure a smooth recovery. Our state-of-the-art facilities include specialized postoperative care protocols, from wound management to tailored medication protocols, delivered by our expert staff.

For complex surgical cases requiring Oxygen Therapy, we offer supplemental oxygen support to facilitate recovery, particularly post-anesthesia or in patients with respiratory challenges. Our facilities are equipped to provide this therapy as needed during hospitalization.

Reiterated for emphasis: We offer IV Fluid Therapy as a cornerstone of preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative care, ensuring optimal physiological support during high-risk surgeries or illnesses. This is critical for maintaining organ perfusion and accelerating recovery.

Our team prioritizes Pain Management throughout all surgical interventions and rehabilitation. We utilize multimodal approaches, including laser therapy, physical therapy, and postoperative medications to ensure your pet’s comfort during recovery. Pain assessment and mitigation are key components of our patient care standards.

We include Anal Gland Expression as part of our Soft Tissue Surgery and pre-surgical evaluations. If your pet requires resolution of impacted anal glands (e.g., through procedures like anal sacculectomy), our surgeons can address these conditions with precision, minimizing discomfort and complications during recovery.

As part of our Rehabilitation & Athletic Conditioning services, we use Cold Laser Therapy to accelerate healing, reduce inflammation, and manage pain in surgical and non-surgical patients. This non-invasive therapy is often integrated into comprehensive rehabilitation plans for optimal recovery.

During evaluations for Chronic Conditions or Geriatric Care (implicit in internal medicine referrals), we conduct Quality of Life Assessments to guide treatment plans and palliative care discussions. This includes assessing mobility, pain levels, and overall well-being to align interventions with your pet’s needs.
