Address and directions
Urinary assessment and surgery for small companion animals
Shinsegae Animal Medical Center treats dogs, cats, hamsters and crested geckos in Mulgeum-eup, Yangsan, Gyeongnam. Its cases include imaging and surgery for feline bladder stones, repair of a gecko’s torn skin, and correction of overgrown incisors in a hamster.
Cats have separate consultation and waiting rooms, an inpatient treatment room and an operating room. These provide dedicated spaces for feline visits, inpatient treatment and surgery.
Imaging identified bladder stones before removal and composition analysis
The eleven-year-old cat described on 22 October 2026 had struggled to urinate since the previous evening, repeatedly visited the litter tray and stopped eating. Radiographs showed two stones inside the bladder. Ultrasound then showed thickening of the bladder wall.
After assessing the patient’s health, including whether heart disease was present, the hospital removed both stones under inhalational anaesthesia. Analysis showed approximately 80% calcium oxalate, with struvite, also called MAP, present. The hospital described follow-up radiographs and ultrasound to look for newly forming stones.
A gecko’s torn forelimb skin was sutured and reviewed during healing
The crested gecko described on 19 October 2026 attended after its leg became trapped beneath a sofa. Physical examination found a severe laceration, a tear in the skin, on the left forelimb. After discussing the condition with the owner, the clinician aligned the torn tissue and closed it under inhalational anaesthesia. The wound required ten sutures.
Antibiotics and an anti-inflammatory pain medicine were prescribed after surgery. At a return visit approximately three weeks later, the sutures were removed and the skin was observed to have healed.
Overgrown incisors and the bite were corrected in a hamster that could not eat
The older hamster described on 16 October 2026 had progressed from eating less to being unable to eat. Its owner also reported apparent weight loss. Physical examination identified overgrown upper incisors and malocclusion, meaning the teeth did not meet properly. The upper incisors were pressing on the tongue and interfering with chewing.
Considering the hamster’s age and physical condition, the hospital corrected the incisors under inhalational anaesthesia. The bite was checked before recovery. When food was offered immediately after recovery, the hamster was observed eating again.
