Small Animal Diagnostic & Therapeutic Services
Our progressive surgical suite allows our veterinary surgeons to perform a wide variety of surgical procedures. Some surgical options include bone-pinning, plating, and external fixators, as well as soft-tissue surgeries ranging from c-sections and tumor removal to routine spays and neuters. For our specialized surgeries Gibson Veterinary Clinic works with a board certified surgeon that will travel to our clinic to perform surgeries for our clients’ convenience. The specialist for Gibson Veterinary Clinic uses the advanced technology of laser surgery for less bleeding, tissue damage, and general trauma to your pet, as well as to maximize recovery time. This wonderful surgical technology is typically used for procedures where minimized blood loss and optimal pain control is critical.
Pet Anesthesia
We utilize the safest available anesthetics to provide an extra margin of safety for your pets. Patients older than 7 years of age, or those with other health concerns, have screening blood work performed prior to administering anesthesia. We also recommend performing this blood work on our younger patients to help establish a baseline and identify any potential problems early on.
All patients are closely monitored for heart rate, respiration rate, EKG, temperature, and oxygen levels while under anesthesia using the most modern equipment. Monitoring continues through the recovery period until the patient is awake and alert.
Veterinary Radiology Services
Our on-site X-ray equipment and ultrasound capabilities provide quality imaging to aid in diagnosing many disorders. By being able to perform our radiographs on-site, we are able to find the diagnosis quicker for both our small and large animal patients. For complex or unusual cases, we send our X-rays for interpretation by board-certified radiologists.
