THE VETERINARY SPECIALTY SURGEON

.

Catalina Veterinary Specialists is owned and operated by Dr. Michael J. Singer, DVM, who is board certified by the American College of Veterinary Surgeons. Dr. Singer has extensive knowledge in orthopedic, soft tissue, and oncologic surgical practices, enabling him to provide pet owners with a complete list of treatment options while his mobile service keeps costs low. He operates this way to help families provide their pets with the quality care they deserve while they pay for their family's needs. Because of this service, many pets have been spared the suffering of long-term, painful health problems.

HOW OUR SPECIALTY SURGERY WORKS

Dr. Singer's process is simple and concise. He meets with pet owners and their pets for an initial consultation, a complete physical examination, and a review of the pet's medical history. He will discuss his findings with the pet's regular veterinarian and determine a treatment plan that is both affordable and effective. When it is time for the surgery, Dr. Singer will perform it in the regular veterinarian's office, accompanied by his staff and equipment. This allows the cost to remain low while maintaining a high standard of care.

After the surgery, Dr. Singer consults with the pet's veterinarian to provide a professional pain management and post-surgery care plan. This plan will be followed by the pet's regular veterinarian and staff to ensure a quick and comfortable recovery.

  • My dog Tank tore his cruciate just before Christmas. Our vet, Ina Road Animal Hospital, diagnosed his condition and recommended surgery with Dr. Singer. Dr. Singer was able to quickly make an appointment to see Tank and we had surgery scheduled within a few days of his accident. Because Dr. Singer is able to do surgery at my veterinarian, I knew Tank would be in good hands. I got a call after surgery letting me know everything went well. Tank spent the night with Technicians he already knew. Ver

  • Dr. Singer is fantastic to work with. He's collaborative and open to thinking outside the box to get the best for his patients. Dr. Singer is that rare surgeon who is skilled with the scalpel and great with his clients. I really enjoy working with him!

  • Dr Singer is a spectacular Veterinary Surgeon. He is extremely thorough and knowledgeable. He takes the time to discuss all options and really listens. He is the best! His tech Valerie is so helpful and knowledgeable and perhaps the best measure of his mobile surgical practice is that she has worked for him for many years and she has the greatest level of respect for him. I highly recommend when being offered surgery for your pet from a veterinary practice that you do review all options because depending on the type of procedure the services of a specially trained Veterinary Surgeon can make all the difference. If you look on his website you can see all of the Vets that he consults with and operates for them on some of their cases. Pick one of those. I’m thrilled that in so doing I found Briarcrest Veterinary Care Center to be my primary care Vet.

  • Excellent surgeon. Very honest, I totally trust him. My dog was three legged and Dr. Singer performed a miracle. His assistant ,Valerie, is awesome. She called me several times to check up on my dog and was very helpful and attentive. I can’t say enough nice things about both of them. So happy to have found such a wonderful and competent vet here in Tucson.

  • We were devastated when we were told Sammy, our 13 y/o Yorkie Poo had liver cancer. Dr. Hurtado our primary vet reassured us that Dr. Singer was the best. Sammy had surgery and Dr. Singer removed a large intact tumor from Sammy's liver. Within four days our 4-legged baby is almost back to normal. Thanks for a job well done.

  • Dr. Singer and his assistant Valerie are so caring and concerned. The knee surgery he performed on my basset hound Bertha took perfectly, but when I returned for a follow up and she was having another issue with her tail Dr. Singer took time to really look her over, listen to my concerns and offer treatment. This was by far above and beyond. Dr. Singer is also very relatable and speaks in a manner that does not have all the jargon. I could not be happier with his approach.
