If you choose to have your pet spayed or neutered here at DVDH, rest assured that their procedure will be done with exemplary care and with the highest of standards. 

​

At Del Rio Veterinary Diagnostic Hospital, your pet's blood work is evaluated in-house. Pre-surgical blood work is necessary as it is a measure to rule out any potential for problems while your pet in under anesthesia. Each animal who undergoes this surgery is intubated (an airway tube is placed). This is done to ensure proper oxygen and carbon dioxide are exchanged as your pet breathes. In addition, an IV catheter will be placed so fluids and medications can be administered.

 

As this procedure takes place, we are able to regulate our patient's temperature with heated surgical tables. Our technicians, along with monitoring equipment, will stay with your pet's vitals from start to finish.
