Tumor Removal & Cancer Surgeries

Compassionate Surgical Care for Your Pet’s Health

Hearing that your pet has a tumor can be overwhelming, but you don’t have to face it alone. At North Haven Animal Hospital, we provide compassionate surgical care for pets with benign and malignant tumors, focusing on improving comfort, preserving quality of life, and supporting the best possible outcome for your companion.

When Is Tumor Removal Recommended?

Not every lump or bump is cancerous, but any new or changing growth should be evaluated by a veterinarian. Depending on your pet’s diagnosis, size and location of the mass, and overall health, surgical removal may be recommended to relieve discomfort, prevent further complications, or treat certain types of cancer.

Tumor and cancer-related surgery may be recommended for:

• Benign skin masses
• Soft tissue tumors
• Mammary tumors
• Certain oral masses
• Suspicious or rapidly growing lumps
• Masses affecting comfort or mobility
• Diagnostic biopsy or complete tumor removal

Before surgery, we’ll perform a thorough examination and discuss your pet’s diagnostic results, treatment options, and expected recovery. Our team will answer your questions and create a treatment plan tailored to your pet’s individual needs.

Supporting Your Pet Every Step of the Way

Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are our priorities throughout every stage of care. We use advanced anesthesia monitoring and comprehensive pain management during surgery, followed by detailed recovery instructions to help your pet heal comfortably at home. If additional treatment or ongoing monitoring is recommended after surgery, we’ll work with you to develop a long-term care plan that supports your pet’s continued health and quality of life.

If you’ve discovered a lump on your pet or they’ve been diagnosed with a tumor, contact North Haven Animal Hospital to schedule an evaluation. Early assessment and treatment can make an important difference in your pet’s care.
