Giving you peace of mind while helping your pet live a longer and better life.

If your pet is undergoing a procedure, you’ll have an entire anesthesiology and pain management team supporting your pet so you can get back to what matters most – spending precious moments together.
Your pet will receive unparalleled medical care during their time at the hospital (and they’ll be spoiled with love and attention, too).

We want you to be prepared for your pet’s visit to the anesthesiologist, so you have one less thing to worry about. Our entire BluePearl team will be with you every step of the way.
Before surgery, a veterinary anesthesiologist will examine your pet and create a customized anesthesia plan based on their condition, health, diagnosis, medical history and the procedure they’re undergoing. This plan may include analgesics, epidurals, nerve blocks, IV fluids and more.
During the procedure, the anesthesiologist will carefully monitor your pet’s vital signs to ensure the best possible outcome.
Afterward, your pet’s care team will ensure that your pet is comfortable while they recover from the anesthesia. They’ll work closely with other caregivers to ensure any discomfort your pet may experience is being controlled and minimized as much as possible.
