Precise, minimally invasive surgery for complex conditions
Advanced soft tissue procedures designed to reduce pain, speed recovery, and protect your pet’s long-term comfort.
Advanced Soft
Tissue Surgery
When your pet needs surgery, you want a clear plan — one that feels both advanced and compassionate. At Kinetic Veterinary Specialists, our soft tissue surgery service provides comprehensive care for conditions affecting the chest, abdomen, and airway.
Our team uses minimally invasive techniques like laparoscopy and thoracoscopy whenever possible, reducing pain and shortening recovery time. Every patient receives an individualized plan supported by imaging, anesthesia expertise, and integrated rehabilitation for a smoother, gentler experience.

We perform a wide range of soft tissue procedures, from life-saving emergency surgeries to elective corrective treatments. Common conditions include:
Brachycephalic Obstructive Airway Syndrome (BOAS)
Corrective surgery for Bulldogs, Pugs, and French Bulldogs to improve breathing and quality of life
Gastrointestinal and Abdominal Surgery
Thoracic Surgery
Minimally invasive or open procedures for conditions involving the lungs, chest wall, or pericardium
Urinary and Reproductive Surgery
Bladder stone removal, urethral obstruction repair, and procedures involving the adrenal glands or reproductive tract
Oncologic Surgery

Interventional Radiology
Advanced minimally invasive procedures using fluoroscopic and endoscopic guidance for targeted treatment with less recovery time
Each case begins with advanced imaging and a detailed consultation to determine whether a minimally invasive or open approach is best for your pet’s comfort and safety.
The Kinetic Difference
Minimally Invasive Techniques
Laparoscopy and thoracoscopy allow our surgeons to perform complex procedures through smaller incisions, reducing pain and promoting faster recovery.
Collaborative Surgical Planning
Imaging and anesthesiology work in tandem to minimize anesthesia time and optimize patient stability throughout surgery.
Compassionate Communication
We explain each option clearly and provide a written treatment plan with transparent cost estimates before any procedure begins.
Integrated Rehabilitation
Post-surgical recovery is supported by our rehab and sports medicine team with therapies that promote healing, comfort, and function.
Anesthesia and Pain Management
Your pet’s comfort and safety come first. Every procedure is supported by a dedicated anesthesia team using multimodal pain control, nerve blocks, and continuous monitoring to ensure smooth induction, maintenance, and recovery.
This proactive approach allows us to treat even fragile or geriatric patients safely.
Aftercare and Recovery
We provide clear written instructions and hands-on guidance for post-operative care. Whether recovery involves rest and restricted activity or rehabilitation exercises, our team remains available for updates and support.
Your primary veterinarian receives complete records, imaging, and recheck recommendations to ensure seamless continuity of care.
