IV Catheter: All patients will receive an IV Catheter to help increase the safety of the procedure(s) if necessary. This will allow instant access for emergency medications in the event an emergency occurs.*
- I understand
Pre-Anesthetic Bloodwork: Pre-Anesthetic bloodwork is recommended to screen for existing disease that could be made worse by anesthesia or that could interfere with a pet’s recovery from anesthesia. Bloodwork is highly recommended if your pet is 7 years or older.*
- I understand
Please complete the mini panel of bloodwork you are recommending prior to surgery on my pet at the additional cost of approximately $90.00 depending on the patients specific needs.*

Pain Medication: All Surgery patients will receive a pain medication injection that is included in the price of their surgery. However, that price does not include additional pain medication to be sent home with the patient (which you, the owner, will administer). Depending on the patients weight the price will vary.*
- Yes, I understand there will be an additional fee for pain meds as recommended by the doctor.
E-Collar: It is important to make sure that your pet’s incision sight stays clean and undisturbed after their surgery in order to prevent infection. The main cause of infection occurs when your pet is consistently licking its incision sight. If we notice your pet is licking before it goes home, we will discontinue that by putting an E-collar on them. This is not included in the price of surgery, as all pets do not require an E-collar.*
- Yes, I would like my pet to be fitted with an E-collar if needed at the price range of $11.00 – $38.00 depending on the size of my pet.
- No, I would not like my pet to be fitted with an E-collar. I assume all post-surgery responsibilities for my pet and understand that infection is a possibility.
Microchip: Microchips are a form of identification that cannot be lost or stolen. The microchip that our clinic uses is injected under the skin of your pet. It is traceable by Google and by microchip readers at veterinary clinics or shelters. We recommend microchipping your pet during surgical procedures due to the large size of the needle used to implant the chip.*
- Yes, I would like for my pet to have a microchip at the additional cost of $52.
- No, I would not like my pet to have a microchip.
Pedicure: Would you like for us to do a nail trim on your pet while they’re under Anesthesia?*
- Yes, I would like for my dog or cat to get there toe nails.
- No, I would not like for my dog or cats toe nails trimmed.
