By offering in-house, physical rehabilitation, we can provide a complete continuum of care, with everything your pet may need from injury to recovery.
Soft Tissue
Soft tissue surgery is sometimes required to treat traumatic, acquired or congenital conditions of the respiratory, cardiothoracic, gastrointestinal or urogenital systems, as well as issues with the ears, mouth, nose and throat. Our surgeons will discuss both medical and surgical options for treating these conditions and will provide experience and expertise in getting your pet back to good health.
Oncologic
Our dedicated surgeons treat, and in many cases, cure pets with cancerous tumors of the skin, muscle, bone, lungs, heart and abdominal organs. Our surgeons have advanced training in the removal of tumors and the reconstruction of tissues surrounding the tumor. All to help your pet live healthier, and longer.
Spinal Care
When it comes to weakness or lameness, it’s critical to understand whether the root cause is orthopedic or neurologic – or if it’s a measure of both. VRSP’s surgeons collaborate to provide the highest level of care. Pairing our surgeons’ expertise with non-invasive imaging like CT and digital radiology allows an advantageous treatment plan to be implemented. In most cases, rehabilitation is important to yield the fastest and most complete return of function. With VRSP’s in-house physical rehabilitation center, you can be assured that our surgeons and therapists are working as a team to provide the best outcome possible.
