Pre-Surgical Care
Patient Monitoring
Pain Management

Before surgery, your pet will be screened and anesthetics will be specially selected depending on your pet’s breed, age, and health. Blood tests will also be performed before any anesthesia is given to confirm that your pet is a good candidate for anesthesia, and that your pet’s internal organs are functioning properly.

During surgery, your pet’s vital signs will be carefully monitored by a trained technician. Every patient will have their blood pressure, heart rate, rhythm, and blood oxygen levels monitored to keep your pet safe during the entire process. Communication is also an important part of the surgery process, and our staff will keep you fully informed about your pet’s condition.

Your pet’s individualized pain management plan may include at-home pain medication to keep them as comfortable as possible during their recovery. Our staff members will walk you through every step and explain everything you need to know for your pet’s post-surgery care at home.

If you have any specific questions regarding our surgical procedures, please call us at (615) 352-4370.

At our worst time, the best people stepped forward. Dr Heidi Free, Tim and the whole team, from immediate arrival, to the communication overnight was exceptional.

You were phenomenal.Stella Kelly

My husband and I would like to thank Quakertown Vet Clinic for the excellent care given to our girl Ellie Mae. They kept us up to date several times a day regarding her care after her emergency surgery and we were encouraged to call at anytime day or night to check on her progress. All the staff have been very pleasant and helpful throughout her stay. We would highly recommend their vet clinic for the excellent care and satisfaction we received and Ellie Mae is doing very well! Thank you all Julie and Creighton Wiley

My cat had an emergency on a Saturday night. The first "24/7" animal hospital I drove to said they were closed. The second said they had a 12-hour wait. This Quakertown location was friendlier, cleaner, nicer overall, and had my cat back to see a vet within 15 minutes. Based on that, I believe they are one of the only truly 24/7 animal hospitals in the area. They took very good care of my cat and she's recovering well now. I'm not sure she would've survived the night if it wasn't for this clinic. Now, of course it wasn't cheap, but I think the bill was fair and reasonable for emergency care on a Saturday night. A thousand "thank you" isn't enough.
