At Tenafly Veterinary Center, we understand that the decision to pursue surgery for your dog is significant. Whether it's a routine procedure like spaying or neutering, or a more complex surgery, our team delivers expert care with rigorous safety protocols and compassionate support throughout the entire process — in Tenafly, NJ.
Types of Dog Surgeries We Perform
Spay & Neuter Surgery
Safe, routine procedures performed with modern anesthetic protocols and dedicated pain management. We discuss the optimal timing for spay/neuter based on your dog's breed and size.
Soft Tissue Surgery
Removal of masses and tumors, gastrointestinal procedures, bladder surgery, wound repair, abdominal exploration, and more — using advanced techniques to minimize recovery time.
Laser Surgery
We use surgical laser technology as a less invasive alternative that reduces bleeding, swelling, and post-operative pain — resulting in faster recovery times and less discomfort for your dog.
Surgical Oncology
Surgical removal of tumors and cancerous masses, often in conjunction with biopsy for definitive diagnosis and coordination with oncology specialists for follow-up care.
Dental Surgery
Complex extractions, oral mass removal, and jaw surgery performed under full anesthesia with dental CT imaging guidance for precision and safety.
Emergency Surgery
When your dog needs urgent surgical intervention — gastric dilation-volvulus (bloat), intestinal obstruction, trauma repair — our team is equipped to respond quickly.
Our Surgical Process
Pre-Surgery Preparation
Every surgical patient undergoes a pre-operative examination and bloodwork to confirm they're healthy enough for anesthesia. We walk you through exactly what to expect, answer all your questions, and provide clear fasting and preparation instructions.
During Surgery
Your dog is monitored continuously by a dedicated veterinary technician throughout anesthesia — tracking heart rate, oxygen levels, blood pressure, temperature, and respiratory rate. We use the safest available anesthetic protocols tailored to your dog's individual needs.
Post-Operative Care
Recovery begins the moment surgery ends. We provide dedicated post-operative monitoring, appropriate pain management, and clear at-home care instructions. Follow-up check-ins are scheduled to ensure healing is progressing well.
