Advanced Minimally Invasive Pet Surgery in San Pedro, Los Angeles CA
Cutting-Edge Minimally Invasive Pet Surgery for Less Pain and Faster Recovery
Minimally Invasive Surgery for Pets
Minimally invasive surgery (MIS) uses small incisions and miniature cameras to perform precise operations while minimizing tissue trauma.
Making its way from human medicine to veterinary use in the early 2000s, MIS reduces the physical and emotional toll of surgery on humans and pets alike.
Pets recover faster, experience less discomfort, and often go home the same day as their MIS procedure. At Your Service Veterinary Hospital is a proud service provider and pioneer of minimally invasive surgery for animals—we’re here to secure the best outcomes with minimal stress for your pet.

Rhinoscopy
Rhinoscopy examines your pet’s nose and oral cavity to diagnose causes of chronic nasal discharge, bleeding, or infections.
This minimally invasive procedure is also an effective method for removing foreign objects stuck in your pet’s nasal passages. It’s especially necessary for pets in Southern California who are at constant risk of inhaling sharp, barbed seeds from regional plants like foxtails.

Testimonials
“After years of frustration and countless visits to different veterinarians, I was at my wit's end. My sweet dog, Bella, had been suffering from ongoing health issues that no one seemed able to figure out. Every time I tried to express my concerns, I was brushed off, and Bella was sent home with a quick fix that never lasted. I felt like no one truly cared about what we were going through.
Then we found Dr. Moss. From the very first visit, I could tell we were in the right place. Dr. Moss took the time to truly listen to Bella’s history and my concerns. He approached her care with compassion, expertise, and determination. Through thorough diagnostics and a personalized treatment plan, Dr. Moss identified the root cause of Bella’s issues—something no one else had done.
Today, Bella is like a brand-new dog—full of energy, tail wagging, and happy again. I finally feel like I have my Bella back, and it’s all thanks to Dr. Moss and his incredible team. Their unwavering dedication and kindness gave us hope when we needed it most, and I am forever grateful.”

With her sweet dog, Bella."When our dog, Charlie, started coughing and having trouble breathing, we were terrified. We didn’t know what was wrong, and every cough felt like a ticking clock. From the moment we met Dr. Moss, we felt an immediate sense of relief. He took the time to listen to our concerns, examine Charlie thoroughly, and explain every step of the process with such warmth and clarity.
Thanks to his careful attention and expertise, he performed an echocardiogram right in the hospital and discovered that Charlie had heart disease. While the news was hard to hear, Dr. Moss’s calm and compassionate approach made all the difference. He walked us through the treatment plan, answered all our questions with patience, and reassured us that Charlie could still live a happy life with the right care.
We left feeling hopeful and empowered rather than overwhelmed. Now, with the right medications and monitoring, Charlie is doing so much better, and we have Dr. Moss to thank for catching this early and treating him with such expertise and kindness. We wouldn’t trust anyone else with his care!”

With his happy dog, Charlie
