Why a specialist? Veterinary specialists are clinicians, board-certified in their field of expertise, who offer their services as an extension of the general practitioner. By referring a difficult surgical case, your veterinarian is demonstrating the utmost concern for the health of your pet.
Our specialty surgical department, led by Dr. Michael Nawrocki, is a resource for your primary care veterinarian providing advanced orthopedic, soft tissue, neurologic, and emergency surgical procedures. Our close working relationship with your primary care veterinarian means unsurpassed care for your pet, from diagnosis through surgery and post-operative care.
A referral by your primary care veterinarian and an appointment are necessary to consult with our surgical specialist. Consultations are generally scheduled in the morning; afternoons are reserved for surgery. Dr. Nawrocki practices Monday-Thursday only, but is on call during various times in the evening and over weekends for emergency surgical procedures only.
