What surgery does Promontory Animal Hospital offer?

Our veterinarians perform soft tissue surgery, spay and neuter, BOAS surgery for flat-faced breeds, eye surgery and Caesarean sections in-house at our Chilliwack clinic. TPLO and other orthopaedic surgery are performed at our clinic by a visiting specialist. Every procedure starts with a written estimate you approve.

Pet surgery we perform in-house

We perform routine and advanced soft tissue surgery for dogs and cats, including mass and lump excision, foreign body surgery, wound repair, abscess treatment, gastrointestinal procedures, and urinary surgery. We support every procedure with modern anaesthetic monitoring, comprehensive pain management, and attentive recovery care.

Soft tissue surgery means surgery on the skin, muscles and organs, as opposed to bones and joints. Our own veterinarians also perform spay and neuter surgery, BOAS surgery for flat-faced breeds, eye surgery and planned and emergency Caesarean sections.

Surgery performed at our clinic by a visiting specialist

TPLO surgery for a torn cruciate ligament and other orthopaedic surgery, such as fracture repair and luxating patella surgery, are performed at our clinic by a visiting specialist. Our veterinarians examine your pet first and take digital X-rays in-house, and the surgery itself happens here in Chilliwack.

What to expect from dog surgery and cat surgery

Before any procedure, our veterinarians examine your pet and explain what the surgery involves, why it is recommended and what recovery looks like. You receive a written estimate you approve before any procedure begins, so nothing starts until you have agreed to it.

On the day, we support anaesthesia with modern anaesthetic monitoring and manage pain from the start. Before your pet goes home, we go through the aftercare with you and tell you what to watch for. If your pet needs ongoing comfort care, see pet pain management.

Urgent surgery during our opening hours

Some surgery cannot wait: a swallowed object stuck in the gut, a deep wound, or a womb infection called pyometra. We provide urgent medical assessments and emergency surgical care during our regular operating hours, 8:00am to 8:00pm, seven days a week.

We are not a 24-hour emergency facility. Outside those hours, contact a nearby 24-hour emergency veterinary hospital. For what to do in the moment, see emergency and urgent care.
