What is Soft Tissue Surgery?

Soft tissue surgery refers to procedures that involve areas of your pet’s body other than the bones or joints. These surgeries commonly involve the skin, organs, or internal systems and can be necessary for a wide range of medical conditions — some urgent, some preventive, and others corrective.

Soft Tissue Surgeries We Offer

Providence Animal Hospital performs a wide range of veterinary surgery procedures in-house. Our skilled team provides comprehensive pet surgery services, including but not limited to:
  • Hernia Repairs: Umbilical, inguinal, scrotal, and perineal
  • Mass or Tumor Removal
  • Exploratory for foreign body removal or diagnostic exploration
  • Cystotomy to remove bladder stones or masses
  • Limb and Digit Amputations (as needed for trauma or disease)
  • Splenectomy (Spleen Removal)
Each surgical case is carefully evaluated to determine the safest, most effective approach for your pet’s individual needs.

What to Expect: Before, During & After Surgery

Pre-Surgical Consultation

Before surgery, your pet will receive a complete physical exam and pre-anesthetic blood work. We’ll review the recommended procedure with you in detail, answer any questions, and provide a personalized plan for your pet’s recovery — including pain management, diet, and activity restrictions.

Day of Surgery

Your pet’s safety and comfort are our top priorities. On the day of surgery, your pet will be cared for by a dedicated veterinary technician, monitored closely throughout the procedure, and treated in compliance with AAHA-accredited surgical and anesthesia protocols.

Post-Operative Care

When it’s time to go home, we’ll sit down with you to explain your pet’s written discharge instructions and recovery guidelines. We’re just a call or text away if any concerns come up — and we’ll schedule any follow-up appointments needed to monitor healing and progress.
