Elective surgeries are performed every Tuesday, unless it is a holiday. Emergency surgeries are done every day of the week.
It is best that your pet not have anything to eat after 10pm the night before surgery and nothing to eat the morning of surgery. Your pet can have a small amount of water the morning of surgery.
We keep any pet that was spayed or neutered overnight to allow for optimal healing and rest. All other procedures vary case-by-case.

Generally speaking, cats and dogs should be vaccinated once yearly for common bacterial and viral diseases. Legally, they need to be vaccinated for Rabies by a licensed veterinarian once per year. There are other core vaccines in which are needed once yearly for both canine and feline pets. Bordetella vaccine (for Canine Kennel Cough) is recommended to be administered every 6 months.
Yes. Heartworm disease is very common in Arkansas, especially here at the Mississippi Delta region. Heartworms do exactly as they imply — they are a parasite that resides in the heart. They act as a physical obstruction that compromises not only blood flow itself, but the heart muscles. A pet with Heartworm Disease left untreated and not on a preventative can result in Right-Sided Heart Failure. Heartworm treatment can also be very costly due to the necessary injectable medication used for treatment. Heartworm Disease is much easier and healthier to prevent than to treat; ask Dr. Sullivan today about a good option for your pets!
