A surgical procedure is much more involved than a physical exam, so a pre-scheduled appointment is necessary. We'll perform an exam and evaluate their overall health and recommend pre-surgical lab work. These laboratory results will help our veterinarians make informed decisions about your pet's health prior to undergoing anesthesia.

When your pet is ready to go home, we will review your postoperative care and medication instructions. If any questions arise after your pet returns home or at any other time during the postoperative period, call us. Help is only a phone call away.

About Vernon Woods Animal Hospital...

The vet called me and addressed all my questions and concerns directly. He was very patient and helpful and communicative. I felt as if my fur babies were in excellent hands and they came out happy / un-scared! Truly appreciate them! Friendly staff - highly recommend!

My dog had a complication in healing from an injury and Dr. Fisher at Vernon Woods went right into action. She came in on her day off to do the surgery we needed, the staff re-arranged the days schedule to ensure this happened. They treated us like beings and showed they cared. They will have us as patients for life. I would highly recommend Vernon Woods and especially Dr. Fisher. Your pet will not be in better hands than with them.

I cannot speak highly enough about Vernon Woods Animal Hospital and especially, Dr. Jones. Dr. Jones is an amazing vet and has been so helpful to me and my pup! He is the kind of vet that makes a difference - he follows up to make sure everything is okay. If you have a pup you love - take them to Vernon Woods Animal Hospital!

I just can't say enough about Dr. Wen. She takes the time to cover everything, makes sure she answers every question, and makes it clear that's she's accessible if you have any questions or concerns later. The difference between the way my dogs behaved our first visit to the way they react to going to the vet now is night and day, and it's because they trust Dr. Wen and feel so much more at ease around her after getting to know her. I would absolutely recommend Dr. Wen to anyone in need of a competent, thorough, and highly professional veterinarian with a caring and calming "bedside manner."

The staff who answer the phone are kind and wonderfully helpful when you call; the doctors and all the technicians truly listen to the feedback of their clients and provide solutions to your pet's health problems. When my dog had a weird reaction to sedation and had to be sedated for another procedure, the doctors listened to my feedback and adjusted the amount of sedative given to my dog and she had a much quicker recovery. Truly wonderful people working here and excellent medical care across the board. They are also observing excellent COVID-19 protocols right now and when things eventually return to normal I look forward to giving the entire staff a huge hug of appreciation.
