Safe, Compassionate Cat & Dog Surgery in Charlotte, NC

When surgery is needed, your pet deserves the highest level of care and attention. At Mixed Pet Veterinary Hospital, we combine expertise, technology, and compassion to make every surgical procedure as safe and stress-free as possible. From routine spay and neuter procedures to complex soft tissue surgeries, our team is committed to supporting your dog or cat through every step—before, during, and after surgery.

How We Keep Your Pet Safe During Surgery

When it comes to surgery, your pet’s well-being comes first. Before beginning, our Charlotte veterinarians perform a full exam and may run lab tests to ensure your pet is ready. We then create a personalized anesthesia plan based on their age, breed, and history. During surgery, your pet is never left alone. Our team monitors heart rate, breathing, blood pressure, and oxygen levels with advanced equipment, while IV fluids and warming systems keep them safe and comfortable. Afterward, your pet recovers in a quiet, supervised area. Pain relief is a priority, with local anesthetics, medications, and comfort measures to help them wake safely and rest peacefully.
