Pre-anaesthetic Evaluation in the form of physical examination is carried out prior to all surgeries, however it can only provide limited
information to the veterinarian. For this reason, we recommend that all patients older than seven years have some form of pre-anesthetic testing.
Anaesthetic and analgesic protocols remain at the discretion of the attending veterinarian. We will make every attempt to make this procedure
as stress-free and painless as is reasonably possible for your pet. If you have any concerns in this regard, they should be addressed to the staff
before completing this form.
Discharge of patients shall be at the direction of the attending veterinarian. Discharge of patients prior to the time approved by the veterinarian
may be risky to your pet’s health and shall only be permitted following the completion of an “Premature Discharge Statement” in order to
establish appropriate responsibility for your pet in such a circumstance.
Estimates of charges for all procedures will be happily provided by your veterinarian. We will adhere to our estimates in all but emergency or
unforeseen circumstances. Your signature below indicates your awareness of the estimated costs for service and your agreement to cover these
costs at the time of service on the usual terms (cash, VISA, MasterCard, Interac).
I, the undersigned, accept these terms for the treatment of my pet and understand fully the nature and the inherent risks of the above procedure(s).
These have been explained to my satisfaction, and I feel comfortable with the compassion and care that the veterinarians and staff of Newton
Animal Hospital will provide for my pet.
