How can laparoscopic surgery help my dog?

We're passionate about bringing this technique to general practice because it allows dogs and cats to have frequently performed procedures with significantly less pain, up to 65% less pain, and a much quicker recovery time. They normally recover in 10 to 14 days, wear the cone of shame, and be kept quiet on a short leash or in a kennel. This type of procedure allows them to heal well enough within one to three days to return to normal activity. So it is very beneficial for your dog. That's why clients are interested in this type of procedure, which is commonly done with humans.

Another big thing that I think is a barrier for clients is the fact that these types of procedures can only be done when they are referred to a specialist. They would be more willing if it could be done where they're most comfortable, like with their primary care veterinarian. If it requires a referral, they are less inclined to do it. We're able to help more dogs with these types of procedures because we can do it in a more comfortable environment at Summer Creek Animal Clinic, where clients are used to being.
