Surgery is a varied discipline which covers a vast array of procedures, a few of which we have listed below. The surgical team at Portland Vets have plenty of experience in minimally invasive (keyhole) techniques which relieves the need for open surgery on your pet.
Studies have shown that pets having minimally invasive surgery suffer less pain, fewer complications, and return to normal activity more rapidly than traditional open surgery.
