What has your pet had to eat and drink today?*

When was the last time they had something to eat or drink?*

Is your pet on any medications or supplements? Please provide a complete list.

These procedures, the medical necessity and costs have been explained to me to my satisfaction. I understand that I may call for updates on my pet as I deem appropriate. I understand that no guarantee has been made to me regarding the outcome of my pet’s treatment or procedure. I understand that some risks always exist with anesthesia and/or surgery and that I am encouraged to discuss any concerns I have about those risks with the attending veterinarian before the procedure is initiated. Should some unexpected life-saving emergency care be required and the attending veterinarian is unable to reach me, I:

CONSENT to additional life-saving treatment at the discretion of the attending doctor and agree to pay for all related fees. I accept that veterinary medicine is an inexact science and that no guarantee of successful treatment has been made.DO NOT CONSENT to additional life-saving treatment at the discretion of the attending doctor and agree to pay for all related fees. I accept that veterinary medicine is an inexact science and that no guarantee of successful treatment has been made.

I UNDERSTAND THAT MY FEMALE MAY NOT BECOME PREGNANT, DESPITE GOOD PROGESTERONE NUMBERS, GOOD SEMEN, AND GOOD UTERINE TONE.*

I understand the above statement

Our greatest concern is the well-being of your pet. We will monitor your pet’s heart rate, respiratory rate, pulse oximetry, temperature, and blood pressure throughout surgery to ensure their safety. This technology, combined with pre-anesthetic blood screening, helps us minimize the risks associated with anesthesia. To further protect your pet, we will perform a Complete Blood Count (CBC) and a Chemistry 10 (Chem 10) panel on all pets undergoing anesthesia. This allows us to check vital organ function, detect underlying health conditions, and ensure your pet is stable for the procedure. If you would like a more comprehensive health screening, we also offer expanded chemistry panels that provide a broader look at your pet’s organ function. These panels are especially valuable for establishing a baseline of your pet’s internal health, which can be useful for tracking changes over time as your pet ages. This information can help us detect health concerns early and provide better long-term care for your pet. Please let us know if you are interested in this additional testing option.*

I want a CBC and full chemistry (SDMA/T4 and Chem 17) ($175-$243).I'm satisfied with the baseline bloodwork.

To ensure that your pet will not chew or lick open a new surgical site, an Elizabethan collar will be sent home with your pet. This small investment could save you the added costs to have the site repaired. If you do not want a collar, you must initial below. Please check one of the following:*

I understand that an estimate of the costs for veterinary services will be provided to me and that I am encouraged to discuss all fees related to such care before services are rendered and during this pet’s ongoing medical treatment. If my pet is hospitalized, I agree to pay a deposit of 60% of the estimated fees on the provided estimate at the time of hospitalization and assume financial responsibility for the balance of all services rendered, due in full on a cash, credit card, CareCredit, ScratchPay or check basis at the time your pet is discharged. If my pet is hospitalized beyond the first day at this facility, I understand that veterinary care during nighttime hours and/or weekends is provided at the discretion of the attending veterinarian. Continuous presence of personnel is not provided during these hours. If I desire that my pet have supervision when this facility is closed, I may elect to transfer to a local emergency clinic, at my expense, where overnight veterinary supervision is available. PLEASE NOTE: Our hospital policy is to keep all surgery patients overnight unless you are informed otherwise by a Doctor or other member of our team.*
