Surgical Operations

Aldeburgh Vets has a sterile surgical theatre where operations are performed separately from non-sterile procedures.

Whilst Brian and Jess are able to perform many routine surgical procedures, Aldeburgh Vets is also able to offer more advanced, referral-level, surgical procedures on-site. These procedures are performed by an advanced surgeon who visits the practice as required.  This often avoids the need for your pet to be hospitalised at a referral practice, as well as the travel required. 

Alongside neutering we are able to perform the following procedures:

• Caesarean Sections
• Lump removals
• TPLO for cruciate ligament rupture
• BOAS corrective surgery for dogs with upper airway respiratory problems (classically French and English Bulldogs).
• Luxating patella repair
• Some fracture repairs
• Intestinal foreign body removals
• Other abdominal procedures
• Anal gland removal
• We do not perform spinal surgery as these patients often require extended hospitalisation post-operatively

When a surgical procedure is indicated, we will provide you with estimates of cost and expected recovery times.

We can also provide a comparison estimate for any surgical procedure that your pet has been recommended.
