Surgery There’s no getting around it – surgery for our pets is always a little scary, even when the procedure is as simple as a spay or neuter. It’s impossible not to worry about whether or not your best friend is ready and healthy enough for surgery, and, of course, there’s anesthesia and recovery time to consider.

At Mercer Street Veterinary Hospital, we’ve made our surgery-suite a worry-free zone. How have we done that? By taking care to keep pet parents informed – and pet patients comfortable and safe – every step of the way, and by offering state-of-the-art facilities and equipment.

  • Soft-tissue
