Surgical & Anesthesia Release

 

Surgical & Anesthesia Release Form

Surgery Procedure(s) to be performed:

Our greatest concern is the well being of your pet, just like with humans there are inherent risks with surgery and anesthesia. To minimize these risks your pet will be examined before administering anesthesia.
We highly recommend preanesthetic blood screening to help insure your pet's recovery.
We check for dehydration, anemia, infection, diabetes, liver/kidney disease, and other conditions your pet may have acquired or have had since birth that have not yet surfaced.
Often these problems do not show up on routine physical exams. The kidney and liver in particular must be functioning at 100% to filter out the anesthesia so your pets can recover uneventfully.
The preanesthetic screen results will help the doctor determine the best anesthetic protocol for your pet.
Presurgical Work-Up

I would like Chem12/CBC (recommend far all pets)
