Pet orthopedic surgeries often require the care of a specialist for proper treatment. With the aid of our advanced diagnostic tools and knowledgeable team, we can help to resolve chronic pain and mobility issues in dogs and cats with our surgical expertise and equipment. You can also expect your pet to receive warm, loving care throughout their time with us, as we work to make their experience as low-stress as possible.
Our orthopedic surgeries include:
- Arthritis treatment
- Repair of cruciate ligament damage (ACL tears)

The field of soft-tissue surgery is a broad one and involves just about every procedure that does not concern the bones and joints. Spays and neuters count as soft-tissue surgeries, but at Fetch, our veterinary surgery specialist and team perform much more advanced procedures, including:
- Trauma surgery
- Laryngeal paralysis
- Bladder stones
- Recurrent urethral obstructions
- Treatment of severe bite wounds, degloving wounds, and non-healing wounds
- Lung lobe mass removal
- Liver shunts
- Splenic mass/splenectomy
- Prophylactic gastropexy (to prevent bloat)
- Intestinal mass removal
Fetch uses the latest cancer technologies and treatments to improve our patients’ quality of life and, potentially, their lifespan. With the aid of our diagnostic equipment, we can perform timely removals of cancerous masses and potentially save lives.
Neurological surgeries involve treating spinal issues, such as Intervertebral Disc Herniation (IVDD), which can cause paralysis without timely intervention. IVDD is the result of a spinal disc deteriorating and causing compression of the spinal cord. This condition can be painful and debilitating, with the potential for paralysis and serious neurological dysfunction to develop. Fortunately, our team can correct this condition before it can get worse. Our veterinary team will work with you to find a tailored solution for your pet.
"Absolutely the best staff! After an emergency surgery at our vet’s office this weekend, we were told to bring Aspyn to Fetch for overnight observation and care. Everyone from the front desk, to the nurse and especially Dr. Groover made us feel at ease. We knew Aspyn would be in good hands! I can’t thank you guys enough for taking care of our girl!"
