Suffolk Veterinary Group

REDUCING PAIN: The laser beam seals nerve endings as it cuts through tissue. This reduces the amount of pain the patient feels during and after surgery. Suffolk Veterinary Group also practices multi-modal pain management for all our surgical patients so that they experience as little pain as possible before, during, and after their procedure.

REDUCING BLEEDING: The laser beam cauterizes and seals small blood vessels as it cuts. This laser energy achieves hemostasis and provides the surgeon with a bloodless surgical field in most procedures. Cauterized blood vessels are less likely to re-open after a surgical procedure, and heal faster.

REDUCING SWELLING: There is no physical contact between the laser and the surgical region, eliminating the tearing and bruising of tissue associated with traditional scalpel surgical methods. Lymphatic vessels are also sealed. This also helps reduce the pain associated with surgical sites and decreases the chance of additional bleeding.

REDUCING INFECTION: Laser energy acts as an antibacterial agent by producing high temperatures, effectively eliminating microorganisms at the surgical site. Gold-standard aspeptic surgical techniques, sterile fields created by a gowned and masked surgical team, an aseptically scrubbed surgical suite and equipment, and completely individualized and autoclaved surgical trays also protect your pet from infection while they are undergoing a surgical procedure.

FASTER RECOVERY: As a result of all of the above, laser surgery provides the benefit of a quicker recovery for your pet. A majority of our surgical procedures are done on an out-patient basis, so your pet can go home on the same day.

With so many veterinary hospitals on Long Island to choose from, you are looking for a Veterinarian and Veterinary Team that provide for you the relationship that is the best fit for your family and your special companion, and one that will continue to grow with you as the needs of your family and your pet change through all of life's ages and stages.

The Suffolk Veterinary Group Animal Wellness & Laser Surgery Center takes great pride in our community. We live local, visit the same places our families do, and participate in a lot of the same activities that make Long Island great. We are part of the Town of Brookhaven in Suffolk County, New York, and mostly serve the towns of Selden (11784), Centereach (11720), Coram (11727), Farmingville (11738), and Port Jefferson Station (11776/11777), although we have seen patients from as far away as Brooklyn, Manhattan, The Bronx, and Queens.

Your special companion becomes our patient the moment you step through the door, and we want to provide our patients with the type of quality service and veterinary care that we'd expect for our own pets. Here you'll find information relating to your special companion whether you're a new family looking for an animal hospital, or an old friend curious to learn more.

Long Island has a lot of local attractions and events that you can enjoy with your pets. Please, to ensure the safety of yourself, your pet, and others anytime you anticipate taking your pet into public, make sure they are fully vaccinated, spayed or neutered, and are appropriately restrained with a leash or harness.
