Authorization
I verify that I am the owner (or authorized agent for the owner) of the above named pet and authorize the above procedure to be performed by College Garden Animal Hospital. I authorize the use of anesthesia and other medication as deemed necessary by the veterinarian and understand that hospital personnel will be employed in the procedure as directed by the veterinarian.
I have been advised as to the nature of this procedure to be performed and the risks involved. No guarantees have been made regarding the outcome or cure. I understand that there is always a risk associated with any anesthesia episode, even in apparently healthy animals, and have discussed my concerns with the veterinarian. The veterinarian has provided me the opportunity to ask questions and receive answers regarding the procedure. This risk includes serious bodily injury or death. I understand that it may be necessary to provide medical and/or surgical procedures which are not anticipated for the safety or care of my pet. I hereby consent to and authorize the performance of such altered and/or additional procedures as are necessary in the veterinarian’s professional judgment. I accept responsibility for any result in additional charges.
I agree to be responsible for all charges incurred while my pet is in the care of this facility and understand payment is due at the time my pet is released from the hospital. I understand no staff will be attending to my pet overnight. All pets who undergo sedation will be kept overnight for observation. Closed system cameras may be used to monitor overnight pets. Staff perform evening checks on hospitalized patients.
In the event of an unforeseen emergency, we will attempt to reach you without delay. Please know that we will take every precaution to ensure that your pet is safe and healthy enough to undergo their procedure today. Any known risks will be discussed with you. However, very rarely, emergencies do happen and we want to know your preference if no one can be reached.
