Animal neurosurgery in Rancho Santa Margarita focuses on conditions that affect the nerves, spinal cord, muscles, and brain in an animal. Our Brightcare Veterinary Group neurologists attended additional years of training and education after they attended veterinary school. While attending school, they treat dogs and cats the most. However, they also may attend to other animals like livestock or horses. Neurosurgery takes hard work, patience, accuracy. We are so thankful for our veterinary neurosurgeons and the care that they provide to all of our patients!
A big question we get asked a lot is, how does one know if their pets are suffering from neurological conditions? There are a few symptoms that you should be on the lookout for. Neurological symptoms can happen over time, after an accident, or even randomly. Be on the lookout for changes in behavior like lethargy, irritability, aggressiveness, or they may not recognize you. Physical changes include vision problems, weakness, deafness, pain in the neck or back, balance issues, seizures, and trouble swallowing. All symptoms should be taken seriously. If you notice any signs, please give your regular vet a call. From there, they will be able to advise you if you need to be seen by a veterinary neurologist. We also deal with neurological strokes can occur as well. All symptoms can be scary, mainly if they occur randomly. Remember to stay calm for your pet, and we will take care of the hard stuff.
Neurological issues are treatable, but not all conditions are curable. When you seek animal neurosurgery in Rancho Santa Margarita, we will do a full examination of your pet during their visit. We will go over what we think the best plan of action is if needed, and it is up to you to decide what other tests you would like to run on your pet. Tests like an MRI or a CT-scanning can help our neurologist figure out what is going on inside your pet. These tests do not hurt or harm your pet in any way, so there is nothing to worry about.
