Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about surgical procedures at Red Rock Veterinary Health.
How do I prepare my pet for surgery?+
Fast your pet for 12 hours before surgery (no food after midnight), but water is usually okay until morning. Follow any specific pre-surgical instructions we provide. Make sure your pet is up to date on vaccines and let us know about any medications they're taking. We'll provide detailed pre-surgical instructions during your consultation.
What safety measures do you use during surgery?+
We use advanced anesthesia monitoring including ECG, blood pressure, pulse oximetry, and capnography. Our state-of-the-art surgical suite is equipped with modern instruments and technology. A dedicated veterinary technician monitors your pet throughout the entire procedure, and we perform pre-surgical blood work to ensure your pet can safely undergo anesthesia.
How long is the recovery time after surgery?+
Recovery time varies depending on the procedure. Routine surgeries like spay/neuter typically require 10-14 days of restricted activity. More complex procedures may need longer recovery periods. We provide detailed post-operative instructions, pain medications as needed, and schedule follow-up appointments to monitor healing. Most pets can go home the same day.
Do you provide pain management after surgery?+
Yes, we prioritize pain management as an essential part of surgical care. We use multi-modal pain management techniques including pre-emptive pain medication, local anesthetics when appropriate, and post-operative pain medications. We'll send you home with pain medication and clear instructions on how to keep your pet comfortable during recovery.
When should I schedule a surgical consultation?+
Schedule a consultation as soon as you know your pet needs surgery or if your regular veterinarian has recommended a procedure. For routine surgeries like spay/neuter, booking 2-3 weeks in advance is ideal. For urgent surgical needs, we can often accommodate same-day or next-day consultations. During the consultation, we'll discuss the procedure, answer questions, and create a surgical plan.
