Ensuring your pet’s safety during her surgery is our top priority. That’s why we strongly recommend pre-anesthetic blood work and electrocardiogram (ECG) before any anesthetic procedure. The testing is in addition to the pricing listed above. Preventive Care Plans include blood work that can be utilized as pre-anesthetic blood work.

Why Pre-Anesthetic Blood Work Matters:

• Safety First: Checks vital organ functions (like liver and kidneys) to confirm they can safely process anesthesia.
• Early Detection: Uncovers hidden health concerns that may not be apparent during a physical exam, allowing us to customize anesthesia protocols.
• Peace of Mind: Ensures we can proceed with surgery with confidence, knowing your pet is in optimal health.

This screening is an essential step in safeguarding your pet’s health, helping us take every precaution to make the surgical experience as safe and stress-free as possible.

Why Pre-Anesthetic ECG Matters:

• Heart Health: Cardiologists have found that about 1 in 25 pets may have a heart rhythm issue that can’t be detected by listening with a stethoscope.
• Customized Care: Allows us to tailor anesthesia protocols to your pet’s specific needs for a safer experience.
• Added Safety: Provides an additional layer of precaution, ensuring your pet’s heart can handle the stress of anesthesia and surgery.

This quick, non-invasive test is a valuable tool in making anesthesia as safe as possible for your pet.
