Please read carefully, complete, initial and sign. Your pet is scheduled for an anesthetic procedure. Anesthetic agents are filtered through the liver and kidneys so it is important to know prior to anesthesia that the organs are functioning correctly. Thorough blood profiles help to verify that your pet is in a low-risk category prior to anesthesia and will help us adjust the pets’ anesthetic protocol as needed. The latest technology has enabled us to run safe and accurate blood chemistries minutes before anesthetic induction. These tests are similar to those your own physician would run when you undergo anesthesia. In addition, the results of these tests will serve as reference values for future use, should your pet become ill. Our veterinarians recommend bloodwork for all pets undergoing sedation and anesthesia.

I hereby authorize and direct the veterinarians of Petsburgh Pet Care to perform the procedures discussed and deemed advisable or necessary for my pet. The nature of the procedure has been explained to me and no guarantee has been made as to the results or cure.

The services listed above may or may not be in addition to the procedure. If you have any questions regarding your estimate or if you need an estimate provided, please discuss it with the veterinary team prior to dropping off. Estimate needed: *
