The assessment of the surgery is carried out by the surgeons with a preliminary visit in which the owner is informed about the reasons for resorting to surgery, surgical techniques, postoperative treatment and the prognosis.
Pre-operative investigations are carried out (haematological, radiographic, ultrasound and endoscopic examinations) and a pre-operative visit, by the veterinary surgeon who will follow the anaesthesia during surgery, to assess the clinical condition of the subject and to establish the most suitable anaesthesia protocol.
General surgery, abdominal surgery, thoracic surgery, orthopaedic surgery, oral cavity surgery, and dental surgery are performed at our facility.
Scheduled surgery is performed daily - Monday to Thursday - by appointment.
The clinic has a sophisticated ultrasound scanner that allows examinations of cats and dogs of all sizes.
Ultrasound has now also become an indispensable diagnostic tool in veterinary medicine and is usually well tolerated by animals.
The ultrasound examination considerably extends the diagnostic possibilities in medicine and the collection of indispensable pre-operative information in surgery.
Ultrasound examinations are performed by appointment by contacting our secretariat.
X-ray equipment is an indispensable diagnostic tool in every veterinary clinic. The wide field of application ranges from soft tissue pathologies (pulmonary, cardiac, abdominal cavity), foreign body detection, malformations, and trauma outcomes, to hard tissue pathologies (osteoarticular pathologies also of a congenital type such as dysplasia).
The clinic has an automatic developer that allows high-quality X-ray films to be obtained in a few minutes.
More specific orthopaedic examinations may require sedation or in some cases general anaesthesia.
Chronic kidney disease is a widespread condition in our animals, particularly in the elderly.
Early diagnosis is essential to ensure good quality and a longer life span for our sick friends.
A complete nephrological examination includes an exam, an abdominal ultrasound and a blood pressure check.

Neurology is the specialist branch of internal medicine that deals with diseases of the central nervous system (brain, spinal cord) and peripheral nervous system (nerve trunks, roots and plexuses).
Diseases of the nervous system are closely related to the anatomo-functional site of the lesion.
Through the integration of the clinical history and the findings of the neurological examination, hypotheses can be formulated on the location of the problem and possible differential diagnoses to select the most appropriate instrumental investigations (CT MRI, etc.).
Ophthalmology deals with the evaluation of diseases affecting the eye and its adnexa.
The centre is equipped with the latest generation of laser equipment, offering an effective and innovative therapeutic tool applied in fields such as surgery, dermatology, physiotherapy and pain therapy.
Compared to traditional treatments, the laser allows minor surgical procedures to be performed quickly, limiting much pain and bleeding and shortening the post-operative course.
It is widely used in physiotherapy and chronic osteoarticular pain therapy, as well as in dermatology.
