Greenwood Veterinary Clinic

Surgery 101

The Greenwood Veterinary Clinic is able to perform most surgical procedures that can be undertaken by vets in General Practice. Surgery is either performed in our treatment room, or more advanced procedures are undertaken in the Sterile Theatre.

General Surgery includes procedures like Lump Removals, Abscess Drainage, Tooth Removals and Suturing of Wounds. All surgeries are performed using sterile equipment, sterile gloves, sterile drapes and a proper surgical preparation, in order to reduce the risk of infection and complications.

The sterile surgical theatre is used for any abdominal surgery, including sterilisations.
