It is our goal to provide a positive, educational, and comfortable experience for pets and their owners when this level of surgical care is required.

Our practice is well equipped with advanced diagnostic technology and patient monitoring capabilities that allows us to offer the highest level of service with digital radiography, ultrasound and CT support. This includes review of CT and MRI studies and review of referral radiographs.

The STVS team is led by Dr. Meredith Esterline, a board certified small animal surgeon, with over 20 years of experience in the veterinary field. Her team of technicians are skilled, qualified and committed to providing a premiere level of perioperative surgical care for your patients.

STVS works closely with its clients referring primary care veterinarians to ensure the owner and their pet receive complete and well-informed care.
