At Oklahoma Veterinary Specialists, we understand that surgery doesn't end in the operating room. Unlike traditional veterinary facilities with limited hours, our dedicated team provides true round-the-clock monitoring and care, 365 days a year. This continuous care model allows us to detect and address post-operative complications immediately, rather than waiting until the next business day. Today, we'll discuss common post-operative complications and explain why constant monitoring during recovery can make all the difference in your pet's surgical outcome.
While some facilities send pets home immediately after surgery, our approach is different. We believe post-operative care is just as crucial as the surgery itself. Our experienced surgical team maintains vigilant monitoring throughout the entire recovery period - not just during business hours. This comprehensive care model has consistently led to superior outcomes for our patients.
Let's explore the most common post-operative complications and how our uninterrupted care model addresses them:
Pain management is a top priority at Oklahoma Veterinary Specialists. Unlike facilities that rely on periodic check-ins, our team provides continuous monitoring, allowing us to detect and address pain issues immediately. We commonly encounter:
Some pets may require adjustments to their pain medication dosage or type. With our 24/7/365 staffing model, we never have to wait to make these critical adjustments. Our emergency team is always present, ensuring your pet never has to endure unnecessary discomfort.
Recovery from anesthesia is a critical period that requires constant supervision. While some facilities have gaps in overnight monitoring, our dedicated nursing staff provides truly continuous monitoring during this crucial time.
Post-operative urinary complications can develop at any hour. Our round-the-clock staffing ensures that these issues are addressed immediately, rather than waiting for the next available appointment.
At Oklahoma Veterinary Specialists, we've developed a comprehensive care model that sets us apart:
While many facilities offer surgical services, Oklahoma Veterinary Specialists provides something more - the peace of mind that comes from knowing your pet is never alone during recovery.
