Minimally Invasive Surgery in Pets
Minimally Invasive Surgery in Pets
While traditional open surgery has its place in veterinary medicine, advances are being made every day in minimally invasive surgical techniques for dogs and cats. These procedures typically result in smaller incisions, less pain, reduced anesthesia time, shorter hospital stays, and a more comfortable recovery.
Join us on Wednesday, June 25th at 6:00pm ET as Dr. Daniel Spector, Service Head of Surgical Service 2 at AMC, discusses minimally invasive surgery in veterinary medicine. Learn about the different procedures where these techniques are used and the impact it has on your pet’s prognosis.
This is a free, online-only event hosted via Zoom (https://zoom.us/). The Zoom link will be emailed to all registered participants the day of the event. Please email UsdanInstitute@amcny.org with any questions.
