Our Surgical Services

At Healing Hearts, our board-certified veterinary surgeon, Dr. Sady Cabrera DACVS-SA along with our highly trained and experienced technicians, perform a wide variety of advanced surgical procedures on dogs and cats. View and learn more about the types of surgeries we perform below.

Orthopedic Surgery

Orthopedic surgery is any surgery that involves your pet’s skeletal system and the bones, joints, tendons, muscles, ligaments, and cartilage associated with it. Orthopedic surgery aims to improve your pet’s quality of life by easing pain, re-establishing function and stability, and bettering your pet’s range of motion.

 

Soft Tissue Surgery

Soft tissue surgery in pets involves procedures including organs, muscles, skin, and connective tissues. Common reasons for such surgeries include tumor removal, wound repair, and gastrointestinal issues. 

Oncologic Surgery

Surgical oncology is the removal of cancerous tissue via surgery. A large percent of solid tumors are cured by advanced surgery techniques without need for additional therapy.

Emergency Surgery

Emergency surgery in veterinary medicine refers to procedures performed immediately to save the life or health of an animal. These surgeries are necessary due to unforeseen circumstances or severe medical conditions that cannot be delayed.
