Depending on what you are doing, you can access the Surface Pro using Microsoft Remote Desktop which is available from the Mac App Store. So, you can actually use your Surface Pro via the Mac as long as you have some sort of network connection (ethernet works best unless you have a super duper ludicrous speed WiFi),
