We request that your pet is not given food after 7PM the night before their surgery and no water after 7AM the day of their surgery. Drop off the day of surgery is between 7:30 and 8AM and will require about 15-20 minutes to go over paperwork with your technician and they will then schedule a time for discharge. At the discharge time a technician will then go over the at home protocol and any medications your pet may need after their surgery. 
Is a deposit required to schedule my pet’s surgery?
Yes, we require a non-refundable booking fee to schedule any surgical procedure. If you need to reschedule, we require at least 48 hours notice.
