Animal Surgical Center Saves JB the Goat in Rare Wildlife Surgery

OCEANSIDE, NY, UNITED STATES, November 12, 2024 /EINPresswire.com/ -- In a remarkable display of compassion and expertise, Animal Surgical Center (ASC) and its founder, Dr. Tomas Infernuso, teamed up with general practice veterinarian Dr. John Corso to perform a life-saving surgery on JB, a beloved goat from The Holtsville Ecology Site. The procedure, done free of charge, involved amputating JB’s front right leg to alleviate his chronic pain and save his life. This rare wildlife case highlights the unwavering dedication of both doctors to ensuring no animal’s life is cut short due to financial limitations.

JB, who is known for his affectionate nature and is visited by thousands of people each year at The Holtsville Ecology Site, was at risk of euthanasia due to the prohibitive costs associated with his care. Dr. Corso, who had been treating JB, reached out to Dr. Infernuso for assistance. Recognizing the severity of the situation, Dr. Infernuso didn’t hesitate to offer his surgical expertise.

“No animal should lose their life because of money,” said Dr. Tomas Infernuso. “We are honored to have been able to save JB and give him a chance to continue bringing joy to so many people.”

The surgery was a success, and JB is now recovering well, already showing signs of his affectionate and resilient spirit. The heartfelt gratitude from The Holtsville Ecology Site staff illustrates the significant impact of this life-saving effort:

"Good Morning, I cannot thank you, Dr. Corso and Dr. Infernuso, enough for taking time from your veterinarian practices to perform a leg amputation on our goat JB at no charge. Without this surgery, JB would not be here with us today. As you have both witnessed, JB is an extremely loving and affectionate goat. He is visited by thousands of people every year here at The Holtsville Ecology Site.

Working with you both and the professional and caring staff from Animal Surgical Center in Oceanside, NY, was an awe-inspiring experience for our staff as well. Our staff looks forward to working together in the future. We are excited to report JB is recovering quickly and in great spirits.

With sincere gratitude,
The Holtsville Ecology Staff "
