    Pre-Anesthetic Bloodwork Consent ($100.00) IV Catheter Placement ($35.00)

    Your pet is scheduled for anesthesia and/or surgery. To assure that your pet is in a low risk category, we recommend a screening blood profile. This test can be performed in our hospital the day of surgery. Pre-anesthetic bloodwork helps detect problems that may not be apparent on physical exam. The results will also serve as reference values for the future. IV Catheters are placed for fluid hydration during surgery and quick access to a vein if needed during the surgical procedure.
    Profile includes: PCV(anemia), Creatinine&BUN(kidney), Glucose(sugar), T.P.(hydration)ALP&ALT(liver)

    Please choose one:

    Laparoscopic Procedures

    Laparoscopy is a minimally invasive surgery option for a multitude of procedures. It uses only a few small incisions, reduced risk of bleeding during and after surgery, less of a need for an Elizabethan collar, faster recovery time and lower risk of infection. With all surgical procedures sometimes incidents arise where the plan of surgery needs to change in the middle of the procedure. For spay procedures it is an Ovariectomy and the uterus is left but should not cause any issues in the future. By signing below you acknowledge the above and give permission to the surgeon to convert the laparoscopic procedure to a traditional surgery if needed
