Laser surgery
Ark is one of the only Laser pet surgical facilities in the Jacksonville, Florida area. Lasers have been successfully used on humans for over 30 years and now, the knowledge gained in human medicine is beneficial for your pets as well.
At Ark, your pet’s health is as important to us as it is to you. Nationwide, hundreds of veterinarians are offering laser surgery as an exciting new option for safer, more comfortable treatment. In many procedures, the laser can replace the scalpel and provide a better alternative to traditional surgery. If you have questions about laser surgery options, contact us today and we’ll be happy to answer them for you.
surgical suites & overnight stays
Most of the time, surgery is an elective procedure such as ovarian hysterectomy or castration. Sometimes surgery is the only treatment, such as repairing a fractured leg or as an emergency, such as C-sections for difficult births. In any case, Ark Animal Hospital has a separate surgery suite fully equipped with up to date anesthetic, surgical and monitoring equipment to provide the best care possible.
We recommend a thorough pre-operative exam, pre-surgical blood analysis and post-operative analgesics to make the procedure as pain free as possible. Our staff is fully trained and capable of taking care of your pet’s needs before, during and after surgery.
Surgical Monitoring & Recovery
After care for any surgery is critical. At Ark, we provide state of the art monitoring and recovery suites staffed by a caring, professional team of veterinary technicians and doctors.
