Port City Veterinary Referral Hospital

Surgery
Advances in veterinary medicine and veterinary surgery have kept pace with those in human medicine and surgery. Over the last two decades, medical technology and techniques have advanced rapidly, making this an increasingly specialized field. A board-certified veterinary surgeon possesses the experience, training, and expertise to manage complex surgical procedures. Surgeons within the Ethos network have access to advanced diagnostic modalities and surgical equipment.
At Port City, we recognize the value of collaboration with you, your regular veterinarian, and our staff as a comprehensive team for your pet’s care.
