More About Us

Our Services

  • Orthopedic Surgery:  Orthopedic problems in pets, such as fractures, joint disorders, and ligament injuries, are common, and we specialize in treating these conditions through advanced orthopedic surgery. Whether your pet needs a routine procedure like fracture repair or something more complex such as hip or knee joint replacement, our orthopedic specialists have the skills and experience to handle it. We use cutting-edge diagnostic tools, including CT scanners and MRIs, to thoroughly evaluate your pet’s condition before surgery. This allows us to create a tailored surgical plan that addresses your pet’s specific needs. We understand how important it is for your pet to regain mobility, and our goal is to help them recover as quickly and comfortably as possible. Common orthopedic procedures we perform include ligament repairs (such as cruciate ligament surgery), fracture stabilization, and hip replacement surgeries. No matter the severity of the issue, we work to restore your pet’s function and improve their quality of life.
  • Soft Tissue Surgery: Soft tissue surgery encompasses a wide range of procedures involving the internal organs, skin, and other soft tissues of the body. At the Veterinary Surgical Center of Long Island, we are equipped to handle both routine soft tissue surgeries like wound repair and tumor removals, as well as more complex surgeries such as abdominal explorations, gastrointestinal, bladder, splenic, hepatobiliary, reproductive, and reconstructive surgeries of soft tissues, including muscles, tendons, ligaments and skin. We utilize advanced diagnostic imaging, including radiology and ultrasound, to assess your pet’s condition before performing surgery. This helps ensure that we are taking the most effective approach to your pet’s treatment. Soft tissue surgeries require precision, and our surgeons are highly skilled at performing these delicate procedures while minimizing risk and promoting quick recovery. From removing benign tumors to repairing damaged internal organs, we are here to ensure your pet receives the best possible care. Whether the surgery is elective or emergency-based, we work with you every step of the way to ensure the best outcome for your pet.
  • Neurological Surgery: Neurological conditions can be particularly challenging for both pets and their owners. From spinal injuries to brain tumors, neurological issues can cause significant distress. Our team of specialists in neurological surgery is equipped to diagnose and treat these conditions with the utmost care. We use advanced technologies like MRI and CT scans to obtain detailed images of your pet’s brain and spinal cord, which allows us to diagnose the exact cause of the neurological symptoms. From there, we can develop a personalized treatment plan, which may include surgery to remove tumors, decompress the spine, or address other neurological issues. Whether your pet is suffering from a spinal cord injury, a congenital neurological condition, or a brain tumor, our neurological surgeons are here to provide the care they need to recover and regain their comfort and mobility.
  • Surgical Oncology: Cancer is a devastating diagnosis for any pet, but we are here to help. Our surgical oncology specialists focus on diagnosing and treating cancerous tumors through surgical removal. We use advanced imaging techniques such as MRI and CT scanning to assess the tumor’s size, location, and spread. This allows us to develop a targeted surgical approach that minimizes trauma to surrounding tissues. We also offer biopsy and aspirate services to confirm diagnoses and provide valuable information to guide the treatment process. Our surgical oncology team is dedicated to providing your pet with the highest level of care.

Our Facilities

Advanced Sterilization Equipment

We understand how important infection control is, especially during surgery. That’s why we use advanced sterilization equipment to ensure all surgical instruments are thoroughly disinfected before use. Our surgical suites are also cleaned regularly to maintain a sterile environment, minimizing the risk of infection during surgery.

Force Triad Ligasure Machine

We utilize the Force Triad Ligasure Machine, which helps seal blood vessels during surgery. This machine allows for a quicker, more efficient procedure with minimal bleeding, reducing the overall surgery time and helping your pet recover more quickly.

Isolation Ward

For pets that require special care or have contagious conditions, we have an isolation ward. This dedicated space ensures that pets can receive the necessary care in a controlled, sterile environment, preventing the spread of infections to other animals.

More About Our Team

Advanced Diagnostic and Surgical Equipment

Our veterinary surgical center in Huntington is equipped with the latest technologies to provide the best possible care for your pet. From diagnostic imaging to state-of-the-art surgical equipment, we ensure that we are always prepared to offer advanced treatments.

  • CT Scanner and MRI: We use a CT scanner and MRI machine to obtain detailed, high-resolution images of your pet’s internal structures. These diagnostic tools help us detect conditions such as fractures, tumors, or spinal issues, allowing us to plan the most effective treatment or surgical approach. The detailed images provided by these technologies help us ensure that our treatment is accurate and precise.
  • 2 Radiology Suites (X-rays): We have two radiology suites that are equipped with advanced X-ray machines to quickly assess your pet’s condition. Whether your pet has a suspected fracture, an abdominal issue, or another condition, X-rays are an essential diagnostic tool that allows us to see inside your pet’s body.
  • Ultrasound Machine: Our ultrasound machine is used for non-invasive diagnostic imaging, allowing us to assess your pet’s internal organs and soft tissues. Ultrasound is often used to evaluate conditions affecting the heart, liver, kidneys, and other organs. This tool provides valuable insight without the need for surgery, helping us identify the cause of your pet’s symptoms and determine the most appropriate treatment.
  • Cold Laser Therapy: To promote healing and reduce pain, we offer cold laser therapy for pets recovering from surgery or injury. This non-invasive treatment uses light energy to stimulate tissue repair, reduce inflammation, and alleviate pain. Cold laser therapy is an excellent option for speeding up recovery, especially for pets who have undergone orthopedic surgeries or have soft tissue injuries.
  • Oxygen Therapy (Snyder Oxygen Cage): For pets who are struggling with respiratory issues or who are recovering from surgery, we offer oxygen therapy through a Snyder Oxygen Cage. This therapy helps stabilize pets by providing them with the oxygen they need to recover and heal more quickly. Oxygen therapy is especially helpful for pets with respiratory distress or those recovering from anesthesia or surgery.
  • Fully Stocked Pharmacy and Blood Bank: We maintain a fully stocked pharmacy to ensure we have the medications your pet needs for pain management, infection prevention, and post-surgical care. In addition, our blood bank is available for pets who need blood transfusions, either during surgery or as part of emergency care. Having these resources readily available allows us to provide the most effective and timely treatment for your pet.
