There is always a risk when performing anesthesia on any animal; however,
complications during and following anesthesia and surgical procedures can
possibly be avoided if the doctor is aware of any underlying illness.
Ailments such as anemia, liver disorders, kidney malfunction, blood clotting
disorders, and infections may not be evident upon physical examination.
Because these and other ailments may affect surgical results and outcomes,
we strongly recommend that all animals undergoing anesthetic and surgical
procedures have a pre-anesthetic profile.
The profile consists of the following lab tests:
- Blood Glucose
- Complete Blood Count
- Total Serum Protein Test
- ALT - Liver Function
- BUN - Kidney Test
*The cost for the profile is $115.00. The cost of the profile is
NOT INCLUDED in the fee quoted for your pet's surgery.
