Our Priority There’s no getting around it – surgery for our pets is always a little scary, even when the procedure is as common as a spay or neuter. At Fremont Animal Hospital, we’ve made our surgery suite a worry-free zone. How have we done that? By making patient safety and comfort our main priority.

Anesthesia & Pain Management Some people are concerned about anesthesia, and while there is always a degree of risk, we utilize the safest available anesthetics and require pre-anesthetic blood testing to ensure that your pet is healthy enough to undergo anesthesia. Your pet’s vital signs will also be monitored throughout the procedure.

Our experienced veterinarians and support staff provide skilled pain management during and after all surgical procedures, ensuring your pet recovers quickly and with minimum discomfort. We’ll also make sure to go over the discharge details of caring for your pet after surgery, including what to expect, things to watch for, post-op medications and check-ups.
