 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.  Great staff and great care for my dog. Everyone was friendly and helpful, and the visit went smoothly. The only thing I didn't love was that we discussed pricing for additional services before the veterinarian had seen my dog. I don't mind talking about costs, but I would have preferred for the doctor to evaluate my dog first and then discuss recommendations and pricing. Overall, it was a very positive experience.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.  We recently brought our dog to ProK9 for a fertility test, and we couldn't be happier with the experience. From the moment we arrived, everyone was incredibly friendly, welcoming, and professional. The staff took such great care of our dog and made sure we felt comfortable and informed throughout the entire process. The facility itself was very clean, organized, and well-maintained, which immediately gave us confidence in the level of care they provide. It was clear that the team genuinely cares about the animals they work with and takes pride in what they do. We truly appreciated the kindness, attention, and expertise shown by everyone at ProK9. If you're looking for a place that provides excellent care and outstanding customer service, I highly recommend ProK9. We had a wonderful experience and will definitely return in the future.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.  We were referred to ProK9 by a friend, and from the very first day, we knew we had found something special. I honestly can’t put into words how grateful we are for their kindness, honesty, and the genuine care they show. When one of our babies became seriously ill, we were scared and overwhelmed—but they didn’t hesitate for a second to help us. They made time immediately, welcomed him in, and treated him like he was one of their own. They carefully assessed his condition and recommended an overnight stay. That one night turned into two, which was so hard for us, but they made it a little easier by keeping us updated every step of the way. Knowing he was in such caring, capable hands gave us so much comfort during a really difficult time. We will always be thankful for the compassion and dedication they showed our family. I can not express  how much gratitude I have for Dr. Patricia Gross and her staff. Thank you again team for taking care of my bubbies.

When might a veterinarian recommend surgery for my pet?

What should I expect before my pet’s surgery appointment?

Before surgery, the veterinary team typically performs a physical examination and may recommend diagnostic testing to ensure your pet is healthy enough for anesthesia. Pet owners receive instructions about fasting, medications, and what to expect during the procedure and recovery period.

Preparing for Your Pet’s Surgery

Preparing for veterinary surgery involves careful planning and communication between the veterinary team and pet owners. Before a procedure, the veterinarian explains the surgical plan, anesthesia protocol, and recovery expectations so owners feel confident about their pet’s care.
