After surgery, your pet may experience mild discomfort and need a recovery cone. We’ll supply pain relief medications and guide you through activity restrictions and wound care.

Your pet must fast from midnight before surgery and stay hydrated until the morning. We will provide detailed instructions when you book the procedure.

For some procedures, such as spays, cats and small dogs may not be the best candidates for keyhole surgery simply because of their size. We assess each case individually based on your pet's overall condition and the specific procedure required.

This type of surgery causes less trauma, offers quicker recovery times, results in smaller scars and often reduces postoperative pain. Many pets go home sooner compared to traditional surgery.

We use keyhole techniques for procedures such as spaying, liver biopsies and bladder stone removal. It’s ideal for conditions where traditional open surgery is unnecessary.

Keyhole surgery, also known as laparoscopy, is a minimally invasive procedure performed through small incisions using specialised instruments and a camera. It allows us to treat internal conditions with less pain, with faster recovery times.
