I do hereby certify that I am the owner/guardian/agent of the pet described above and have full authority to execute this consent. I certify that my pet has not eaten in the last 8-12 hours as recommended. I give my full authorization and consent to have the veterinarians of Parkland Veterinary Hospital to perform the surgical procedures listed below.

Procedure(s) being performed:*

Pre-Surgical Blood Work: Your pet’s risk of complications during and after anesthesia and surgery is tremendously greater if there is preexisting organ disease, malfunction, or failure. We require blood work before anesthesia and surgery to help rule out these problems or identify them and devise an alternative treatment plan to meet your pet’s unique needs. These blood panels provide immensely valuable information.

Pets under 5 years of age: We perform a blood chemistry profile that assesses liver values, kidney values, blood glucose, and blood proteins. Pets over 5 years of age: We perform a COMPREHENSIVE blood chemistry profile that assesses liver values, kidney values, blood glucose, blood proteins, calcium, phosphorous, cholesterol, and more.

Post-Surgical Pain Management: The anesthetic protocol chosen by our doctor provides relief from pain during and up to 4-6 hours after surgery. For this reason, your pet should be comfortable, although possibly a little drowsy, upon discharge. One set of pain medication(s) will be sent home to be used after all surgical procedures for continued comfort and pain relief. Any additional or prolonged medication will be at owner's expense.

Healing and Recovery: We use Laser Therapy at the end of each surgical or dental procedure to help reduce inflammation, pain, and swelling. This treatment is proven to enhance and speed-up the healing process. As a result, we require one treatment at a minimum, but recommend EITHER

A) THE RECOVERY PACK, which is a set of three sessions proven to assist with healing and recovery for $139, OR

B) SURGERY HEALING THERAPY (for larger incisions or multiple dental extractions), which is a set of FIVE sessions to speed up the healing process and shorten the healing time for $195.

C) CHROMOSPHORE+BLUE LIGHT THERAPY (NOT for oral /dental procedures), speeds up closure of skin incision site and repairs damaged skin due to either surgery or wound care for $97.22, AND/OR

Microchip Implantation: 1 in 3 pets go missing during their lifetime, and without proper identification, 90% never return home. A microchip is a form of permanent identification implanted under your pet’s skin. The microchip is about the size of a grain of rice, is placed in a matter of seconds, and helps keep you connected to the pet you love, forever. Once registered, you can update your pet’s online profile to include his/her picture and any pertinent medical information: Our microchip ($89) includes:

a) FREE LIFETIME REGISTRATION and

b) All-in-one Temperature Sensor which eliminates the need for very intrusive and uncomfortable Rectal temperature checks at veterinary appointments.
