Surgery

Surgery, done carefully

Routine and emergency procedures, performed standing under sedation or under general anesthesia in our surgical suite.

Deciding on surgery for your horse is a big step. We'll explain the options, the risks and the recovery before anything is scheduled.

Our team includes Dr. Maggie Peitzmeier, a board-certified large animal surgeon (DACVS-LA). Our surgical suite has equipment to move and position horses safely, and two induction and recovery rooms with good footing and padded walls, so horses wake up from anesthesia safely.
