Adam and Cody
SurgiPet is a 10/10! I did a bunch of research before deciding that SurgiPet was the right place to have my dog Cody's tumor on his paw removed, and they delivered beyond my expectations!

Noah and Coda
The entire process with the SurgiPet team was very pleasant and they helped streamline the entire process. They were much more affordable than all the local vets that I tried to go through. I was glad I made the trip down to Carlsbad.

Have Questions? We’re Here to Help!

How is SurgiPet different from my regular vet’s clinic for surgery?

Your regular vet’s clinic handles many types of visits and may have a mobile board-certified surgeon to operate on certain days. SurgiPet is different because we are a dedicated surgery center: our entire facility, team, and protocols are focused on anesthesia and surgery every day.

At SurgiPet, you meet directly with the surgeon to discuss your pet’s condition and what to expect. During surgery, two doctors care for your pet: the surgeon who focuses only on the procedure and an anesthesia specialist who focuses only on safe, comfortable anesthesia.

Our surgery-only model allows clear flat-fee packages and post-surgery support 7 days a week. We guide you through recovery, then your regular vet continues routine care like wellness visits and vaccines once healing is complete.

Do I have to make an appointment?

Yes! All consultations and surgeries (including emergencies) are scheduled through our patient care team. You can call us at 760.290.8390, email info@surgipet.com, or fill out our contact form - whatever works best for you!

If surgery is needed, can it happen the same day as the consult?

Yes! If our surgeon determines that surgery is needed, we can often perform it the same day. Your pet will come in for the consultation, have surgery, and go home the same day. Just let our staff know you’re interested in this option when booking your consultation.

Can I get a quote for my pet’s surgery before making an appointment?

Yes! Give us a call or send an email to receive an accurate, all-inclusive flat-fee quote. If you have any medical records or X-rays, please email them to us—this helps us provide the most accurate estimate.

Do you perform TPLO Surgery?

Yes, TPLO surgery is our core specialty. Our surgeon performs over 250 TPLO surgeries each year, with a dedicated anesthesia specialist focused on your dog’s safety and comfort. We use advanced nerve block technique to start pain control before surgery begins, allowing us to use lower doses of anesthetic drugs for safer anesthesia and faster recovery.

Our all-inclusive TPLO package at SurgiPet covers everything from the initial consultation to post-surgical rechecks and X-rays. You can schedule a consultation or explore our TPLO Process & Pricing to learn more.

Do you offer spay and neuter surgeries?

Yes—and we approach every one as the specialty-level procedure it deserves to be.

At SurgiPet, spay and neuter aren’t routine check-box surgeries. They’re full anesthetic events with real risks, so we give them the same level of planning and monitoring as our complex orthopedic cases. Your pet is cared for by two doctors: a surgeon with over 20 years of experience and an anesthesia specialist focused only on your pet’s safety and comfort.

Why does this matter for a “routine” surgery? Across large groups of pets, serious anesthesia complications occur in about 1 out of every 700 spay/neuter procedures. Imagine 700 pets lined up in a row—most do perfectly well, but one may have a serious problem. We design everything we do around protecting that one pet.

This level of expertise does cost more than a typical general practice—because it’s a different standard of care. We’re happy to talk through whether SurgiPet is the right fit for your pet and your family. Call us at 760-290-8390 or email info@surgipet.com

Do you offer payments plans?

SurgiPet accepts the CareCredit credit card with special financing options* and payment plans through ScratchPay. We provide flat-fee all-inclusive transparent quotes for surgical procedures so that you are fully informed and able to make financial arrangements if necessary.
