​

Here at Croswell Veterinary Services, we offer a diverse array of soft tissue surgical services.  Soft tissue surgery involves surgery of the skin, muscles, and organs within the body.  From the more common spays and neuters, all the way to the more advanced surgical lumpectomies and mass removals, we try and offer services to anybody who is unable to find treatment for their cats and dogs at their general practitioner’s clinic, or for services they might not be able to afford at a specialist when appropriate.   

​

Some of the more specialized surgical needs will require a team of highly skilled diplomate veterinarians, such as Board-Certified Radiologists, Surgical Oncologists, Anesthesiologists, Board Certified Soft Tissue Surgeons, and others that we will refer you to if a referral is needed and/or desired.  Some surgeries will require further diagnostics from Board Certified Veterinarians such as Cardiologists, Neurologist, and Ophthalmologists to names a few, that we may refer you to before we are able to complete the surgery.  However, we do have the ability and extensive expertise to provide and offer many advanced soft tissue surgeries at our clinic.  Please feel free to contact us to inquire.

Orthopedic Surgery is a service we seldom offer.  Unless our client has absolutely no other options, we will refer all of the orthopedic surgical candidates to the appropriate facilities.  We do have a list of specialists that we refer to frequently; some are local, and some are within a 1-2 hour drive from our clinic.  Although we have repaired a number of fractures and traumatic bone injuries in the past, we prefer and excel in the soft tissue surgical services we frequently provide as listed above.
