Anesthesiology

The anesthesia section provides anesthesia services for all areas of the hospital. All species of animals are anesthetized, from gerbils to the largest draft horses. The sophisticated patient services provided by the other areas of the hospital require equally sophisticated anesthesia for the highest quality in patient care. In addition to the specialized cases, anesthesia services are also provided for the routine procedures performed as part of our local practice.

The anesthesia faculty and staff also participate in pain management and critical care for hospitalized patients when consulted. Many of the techniques, drugs and equipment used in veterinary anesthesia are the same as those used in human anesthesia.

Students pursuing the DVM degree actively participate with the anesthesia faculty and staff in each phase of providing anesthesia services.
