Surgeries are scheduled and performed Monday through Friday.
Surgery patients should be dropped off no later than 8:30 a.m.
If your pet is showing signs of illness (runny nose, fever, etc.) or the blood work reveals problems, we will reschedule or re-evaluate your pet for surgery.
Pre-anesthetic bloodwork is strongly recommended for all patients, but may be required for those with special health problems or elderly patients.
This bloodwork checks baseline blood values of the kidney, liver, glucose, and protein levels of patients to ensure there are no underlying abnormalities that would prevent us from wanting to sedate your pet.
