Surgery and Anaesthesia

At West Clare Vets, we provide expert surgical and anaesthetic care for large animals, ensuring their health and well-being are prioritised in every procedure. Whether on the farm or at our fully equipped facility, our experienced veterinary team is skilled in performing a range of surgeries to address the needs of cattle, horses, and other livestock.
Surgical Services
Our large animal surgical procedures include treatments for common conditions such as cesarean sections, hernia repairs, wound management, and treatment of abscesses. We also handle orthopaedic issues and specialised procedures, tailored to the specific requirements of each case. With a focus on precision and care, we aim to minimise recovery time and optimise outcomes for your animals.
Anaesthesia for Large Animals
We use advanced anaesthetic protocols to ensure the safety and comfort of your livestock during surgical procedures. Each animal undergoes a thorough pre-anaesthetic evaluation, including clinical examination and, if necessary, diagnostic tests, to determine their suitability for anaesthesia. During the procedure, our team closely monitors vital signs using specialised equipment to ensure the highest level of safety. Post-anaesthetic care is provided to support a smooth recovery, with tailored advice for managing your animal’s post-operative needs.
​
Whether your animal requires routine surgery or emergency intervention, West Clare Vets is committed to delivering high-quality, compassionate care using the latest techniques and technology. Our goal is to support the health and productivity of your livestock through expert surgical and anaesthetic services.
