Anesthetic Services Information

Anesthesia can be a risky procedure! To reduce this risk we recommend IV fluids & bloodwork!

1) Intravenous Fluids IV ($153) Included with most procedures

Intravenous fluids provide a direct access to your pet's circulatory system and are recommended for all patients undergoing a surgical procedure. Direct access allows us to give medications and fluids rapidly in the event of an emergency. Intravenous fluids will help maintain blood pressure and hydration during anesthesia. Maintaining adequate blood pressure will help ensure that enough blood is supplied to vital organs such as the brain, heart and kidneys. Intravenous fluids may also help your pet recover more quickly from surgery. *
IV Fluids ($153 + tax). Required for most procedures.

2) Pre-Operative Bloodwork $160

Pre-operative blood work gives us an inside look your pet's vital organs and allows for the detection of possible organ dysfunction. We’re especially concerned with the health of the liver and the kidneys, as these organs help the body eliminate medications used during anesthesia. In addition, this blood testing can determine if an animal is anemic or has an infection, which may result in surgical complications. The blood results from today can also be used as a baseline for future bloodwork.
Pre-Operative Bloodwork ($160 + tax)

3) Microchip Identification Implantation $90

According to PetFinder, millions of pets go missing every year and one in three pets will go missing at some point in their life. Your pet needs a form of identification that’s reliable and can’t get lost, stolen or damaged. Microchipping is a safe, simple form of identification that can significantly increase the chances of returning home safely. About the size of a grain of rice, a microchip can be inserted beneath ‘s skin between the shoulder blades
