Eligibility

All pets must be spayed/neutered to receive surgical services.  If your pet is not spayed/neutered and in need of surgery, we would be happy to schedule the spay/neuter procedure as well.

We do not offer to declaw surgery for cats, ear cropping, tail docking, or any other cosmetic surgery.

If you do not see the surgical procedure your pet needs listed below, please contact us to inquire.

Preanesthetic blood work

Preanesthetic blood work is always recommended to ensure that your pet is a good candidate for anesthesia and surgery, especially for patients over the age of five years. Preoperative blood work may be required for particular surgical procedures.

Preanesthetic blood work includes a complete blood count (CBC) and a chemistry profile.  Pre-anesthetic blood work can be completed the morning of surgery or during a preoperative visit prior to the surgery date.
