Vet Pain Management Veterinarians in Wayne

Tri-County Animal Hospital provides pain management programs for pets that are recovering from a surgery, injury, or illness. Our vet pain management programs in Wayne will help ease the pain and discomfort of both chronic and acute conditions. Acute pain is sudden, usually resulting from a surgery, injury, or infection. Although usually temporary, acute pain can be very uncomfortable and limit your pet’s mobility. Chronic pain develops slowly over time, and is long lasting. Common causes of chronic pain include arthritis, cancer, dental disease, ear and skin disease. Pain from chronic conditions is especially troublesome as it can go on for a long period of time.

How Can I Tell if My Pet is in Pain?

Unfortunately, animals will instinctively hide or mask their signs of pain which makes it very difficult to tell when your pet is uncomfortable. Dogs and cats will very rarely cry or whimper when they are in pain. This makes it very difficult for pet owners to recognize the more subtle signs of pain in their pets. The Wayne pet pain management veterinarians at Tri-County Animal Hospital will examine your pet thoroughly and ask very specific questions regarding your dog or cat’s behavior. Common symptoms and changes in your pet’s behavior include:

  • Panting or heavy breathing
  • Limping or lameness
  • Inability to climb up or down stairs or on/off furniture
  • Decreased appetite
  • Listlessness or unresponsiveness
  • Whining or whimpering, or persistent barking or meowing
  • Biting or snipping at people
  • Frequent licking or chewing
  • Trouble sleeping or eating
  • Inability to get comfortable
  • Exhibiting behavior that is out of character

If your pet exhibits one or more of these signs, he or she may have a medical condition that requires attention from one of our veterinarians in Wayne. Call us today to schedule an appointment to develop a Wayne vet pain management plan that is customized for your pet.

If you are looking for a veterinarian look no further. This place literally is amazing and clean. Dr. Torres and Dr. Silberman are the best! I remember bringing my kitten the first time hysterically crying because I never owned a pet before but they made sure to calm me down and reassure me that everything was going to be ok. The staff is one of the friendliest and most professional I've ever met. 10/10 will literally exceed all your expectations.

We took our nervous 2-year old cat (Hobbes) to Tri-County Animal Hospital for the first time, and the experience we had with this facility was excellent. From the initial call of setting up the appointment, the staff came across as professional and kind. It's not always fun taking a cat to the vet, but the staff were warm towards Hobbes and did their best to make her feel comfortable.

They absolutely get it ! The best Veterinarians, the best support staff. I moved this past year and decided to try another animal hospital closer to me. Bad mistake, lesson learned ! What a relief to be back where quality of care and expertise resides.

From my first consultation with Dr Torres, over the phone, she was asking loads of questions trying to get as much information about Charly. That left an incredible impression on me as other doctors would just rush me off the phone. I also can't say enough about everyone else that works there. So glad I brought my girls to you.

I've had wonderful experiences at Tri-County. The vets are empathetic, caring, patient, thorough, and funny, too. Things are explained to me and I am given options. The staff are also friendly, helpful, engaging, and are always glad to see us. Very happy to have the Tri-County team care for my dogs!

Wonderful Doctors and staff at this hospital. Both Dr. Silberman and Dr. Torres have been very attentive, thorough and knowledgeable with my fur baby. Also need to mention that this is the only animal hospital that I have been to that doesn't smell like one. That is always the first thing I notice when I first walk in the door and tells me that the hospital is kept clean. Love this. It's a bit of a trek for me but so worth the trip. I highly recommend!!
