More About Us

Our Services

  • Orthopedic Surgery: Orthopedic issues are among the most common conditions we treat at the Veterinary Surgical Center of Long Island. Whether your pet has suffered an injury, needs joint replacement surgery, or requires complex bone repairs, our orthopedic pet surgeons have the expertise to handle it. We offer a full spectrum of services, including the treatment of fractures, joint disorders, ligament injuries, and conditions such as hip dysplasia.
    Our surgical team uses advanced diagnostic tools such as CT scans and MRIs to evaluate your pet’s condition thoroughly. This allows us to plan the best surgical approach for your pet’s needs. The goal of orthopedic surgery is to restore your pet’s mobility and comfort, helping them return to an active and healthy life as quickly as possible. For pets with joint or bone problems, we perform surgeries ranging from routine fracture repairs to advanced procedures such as hip replacements and ligament repairs. We are committed to using the latest technology and techniques to give your pet the best possible outcome and to ensure a speedy recovery.
  • Soft Tissue Surgery: Soft tissue surgeries are those that involve the internal organs, skin, or other soft tissues of the body. At the Veterinary Surgical Center of Long Island, we are equipped to handle a wide range of soft tissue procedures for pets, including tumor removals, abdominal explorations, gastrointestinal, bladder, splenic, hepatobiliary, reproductive, and reconstructive surgeries of soft tissues, including muscles, tendons, ligaments and skin, and more. These procedures often require precision and care to minimize the risk of complications and ensure a successful recovery. We use advanced diagnostic imaging, including radiology and ultrasound, to accurately diagnose your pet’s condition before performing any surgery. This allows us to take a targeted approach that is tailored to your pet’s needs. Soft tissue surgeries can be delicate, but with our experienced team and state-of-the-art equipment, we ensure that your pet’s safety and comfort are always our top priorities. For pets with tumors, gastrointestinal issues, or urinary tract problems, our soft tissue surgeons have the experience and skill to provide the necessary care to restore their health. Our team works closely with you to ensure that you are fully informed about the procedure and the expected outcomes.
  • Neurological Surgery: Neurological conditions can be some of the most complex and challenging to treat, but our veterinary surgeons are trained to handle them with care and expertise. If your pet is suffering from conditions such as spinal cord injuries, brain tumors, or other neurological disorders, our neuro surgery specialists can help. Using cutting-edge diagnostic tools like MRI, we are able to identify the exact nature of your pet’s neurological condition. Our team then develops a personalized treatment plan that may include surgery to relieve pressure on the spine or brain, remove tumors, or address congenital conditions. Neurological surgery often involves careful precision, as the brain and spinal cord are highly sensitive areas of the body.
    The goal of our neurological surgeries is to alleviate pain, restore function, and improve your pet’s overall quality of life. We understand that seeing your pet struggle with neurological issues can be distressing, and we are dedicated to providing compassionate care that aims to restore their health and comfort.
  • Surgical Oncology: Cancer is a heartbreaking diagnosis for any pet owner, but the Veterinary Surgical Center of Long Island is here to provide support and effective treatment. Our surgical oncology team specializes in removing tumors and performing other cancer-related surgeries. Whether your pet has a benign growth that needs removal or a malignant tumor that requires more extensive surgery, we are equipped to handle a variety of cancer cases.
    We use advanced imaging technology such as MRIs and CT scans to diagnose cancer and assess the size, location, and spread of tumors. In many cases, surgical removal of the tumor is the most effective treatment, and we carefully plan each surgery to ensure the best possible outcome for your pet. Our surgical team is experienced in performing procedures that minimize trauma, reduce recovery time, and maximize the chances of a full recovery.
    Additionally, we offer biopsy and aspirate services to help confirm diagnoses and guide treatment decisions. If your pet’s cancer requires chemotherapy or radiation in addition to surgery, our team will work closely with your oncologist to ensure that your pet receives the most effective treatment.
