Surgical services in Daly City cover everything from a planned spay or neuter to advanced procedures that most general practices refer out. Our team handles routine soft tissue work in-house every day, and our board-certified surgeon takes on the orthopedic, neurologic, and complex soft tissue cases that benefit from specialty training. We operate seven days a week from 8 AM to 7 PM, with same-day surgical consults available during open hours. For surgical concerns outside our hours, please visit a 24-hour veterinary facility in the Bay Area.
Veterinary surgical services include planned procedures such as spay and neuter, soft tissue surgery, dental extractions, and tumor removal, plus advanced cases such as orthopedic surgery, splenectomy, gastrotomy, and endoscopy. Routine cases are handled by staff veterinarians; advanced cases benefit from a board-certified surgeon with residency training in small animal surgery.
Spay and neuter, mass removal, cystotomy, exploratory surgery, and similar soft tissue procedures are part of our regular surgical calendar. Our owner Dr. Bikram Sohi, who trained at Punjab Agricultural University in India and completed advanced clinical training at Iowa State University, leads the routine surgical work alongside our staff veterinary team. Current anesthetic protocols, individualized pain management, and structured pre-surgical and post-surgical care are part of every procedure. Pre-anesthetic bloodwork checks organ function before the procedure, and our team reviews the plan with you in advance so you know what to expect on the day and during recovery at home.
Complex cases benefit from a surgeon who completed a formal surgical residency and board certification. Dr. Hani Korani, DVM, DACVS-SA is a Diplomate of the American College of Veterinary Surgeons in Small Animal Surgery, and he handles the advanced procedures at our Daly City clinic alongside Dr. Bikram Sohi and the rest of the veterinary team. His training covers orthopedic surgery (fracture repair, cruciate ligament procedures, joint stabilization), neurologic surgery, eye and ear surgery, and advanced soft tissue surgery including splenectomy, gastrotomy, enterotomy, and endoscopy. Having this depth of training in-house means many pets that would otherwise need an outside referral can be cared for here.
Some surgical cases need to be addressed the same day. Gastric dilatation-volvulus (GDV), commonly called bloat, urinary blockages, foreign body removal, and severe lacerations all warrant immediate evaluation during open hours. If your dog or cat is showing signs of a surgical emergency such as a distended belly, repeated unproductive retching, sudden collapse, or inability to urinate, call us at (415) 859-5676 right away during open hours. Outside our hours, please go directly to a 24-hour veterinary facility.
Our team reviews pre-anesthetic bloodwork, confirms fasting instructions, and walks you through the consent form. You will have a clear understanding of the plan and a written estimate before anything begins.
Pets are monitored closely throughout anesthesia and recovery by trained veterinary assistants and technicians. Pain management is individualized, and most pets go home the same day or the next morning.
Our team provides written discharge instructions covering activity restriction, incision care, follow-up visits, and what to call about. We are reachable by phone during open hours if anything changes during recovery.
Our team handles routine procedures including spay and neuter, mass removal, exploratory surgery, cystotomy, and dental surgery.
