Why Choose Specialized Veterinary Surgical Care?

Many conditions pets face go beyond the scope of routine veterinary medicine. Orthopedic injuries, cancer diagnoses, spinal issues, or complex soft tissue problems often require the skill of a board-certified surgeon. Our surgeons are highly trained in advanced techniques, and we work closely with your primary care veterinarian to create a treatment plan tailored to your pet’s condition, breed, age, and lifestyle.

At VSCLI, we believe that specialized care is about more than technical skill. It’s about listening, communicating clearly, and ensuring you feel supported throughout the process. From your first consultation through recovery, our goal is to provide clarity, comfort, and confidence.

More About Us

Advanced Neurological Surgery

Neurological conditions in pets can be life-altering, but many are treatable with the right surgical approach. Our surgeons perform advanced procedures to address brain, spinal cord, and nerve disorders.

Common neurosurgical procedures we provide include:

  • Dorsal Laminectomy – Used for disc herniations and spinal tumors to relieve spinal cord pressure.
  • Hemilaminectomy – A targeted approach for herniated discs, often performed in dogs with painful spinal cord compression.
  • Ventral Slot Decompression – Frequently performed in the cervical spine (neck) to remove disc material and relieve pressure.

These procedures are especially common in breeds predisposed to spinal problems, such as Dachshunds, French Bulldogs, and Cocker Spaniels.
Every surgery is performed with meticulous care and advanced monitoring to ensure your pet’s safety and comfort.
