About the practice
Surgery is our jam.
Most veterinary clinics offer "everything" — wellness, dentistry, vaccines, the occasional surgery. Simon Veterinary Surgical is the opposite. We perform highly advanced surgeries every day, and we're willing to take on the complicated cases. That focus changes what we can do for your pet.
Our philosophy
A flat rate beats a surprise bill.
Itemized veterinary billing is a stressful experience at the worst possible moment. You bring your pet in for surgery, and the quote keeps moving: the anesthesia, the meds, the recheck, the x-rays, the laser, the rehab — line item after line item.
We do it differently. One number, agreed in advance. That number covers the surgery itself, advanced pain control, a recheck visit, follow-up x-rays, a cold-laser therapy session, a rehabilitation visit with our certified rehab therapist, and take-home medications. No surprise add-ons. We can do this because surgery is the entire practice — we know exactly what each case takes.
And because we're a surgical specialty practice, we don't compete with your primary veterinarian. We work alongside them. Your client stays your client.

For referring veterinarians
A partner, not a poach.
Many GP veterinarians don't refer because they're worried about losing the client. We get it. Our model is referral-friendly by design: we handle the surgery, send full case notes and imaging back the same week, and route every routine follow-up back to you.
Your client never feels handed off — and you stay the primary care provider. Same-week scheduling on most procedures, including emergency capacity when our schedule allows.
For pet parents
Honest answers, kind humans.
We know what it feels like to face a serious diagnosis for a pet you love. That feeling is the entire reason we structure things the way we do — clear pricing, clear timelines, clear expectations. No "oh, that wasn't included."
Whether you're a first-time owner or have a rescue who's been through it all, our team answers your questions like family. Nathan, our practice manager, is the person most clients end up thanking by name.
