Pain control helps your pet through its recovery period, relieving pain and stress associated with the procedure. Your pet will receive a post-surgical injection for pain control, which lasts approximately 6-8 hours. Additional pain control will be administered at the Doctor’s discretion according to your pet’s individual needs.
As with any procedure requiring general anesthesia, there are risks of serious complications or even death may result.
Please be aware that shaving a patch of fur is necessary for the safe placement of a sterile IV catheter. Fur must also be shaved for surgeries that require skin incisons.
A member of the team will contact you to go over discharge instructions and to set up a pick up time following your pet's procedure. Please note that late pick-ups after 6:00pm will be subject to an additional fee of $30 for every 10 minutes late.
