Our surgery is equipped with safe isoflurane gas anaesthetic machines. We take pride in our state-of-the-art anaesthetic equipment and modern anaesthetic protocols. Prior to a general anaesthetic, each patient receives a thorough physical examination to identify any existing medical conditions that may increase anaesthetic risk. As not all problems can be detected by examination, our hospital offers a pre-anaesthetic blood test panel that can be performed on the same morning prior to the anaesthetic. This blood test panel acts as a general health screen and will not only give us a more complete picture of your pet’s health, but will also allow us to create an anaesthetic protocol tailored specifically for your pet. We especially recommend this blood test panel for dogs and cats over the age of 7 years that are undergoing any general anaesthetic and/or surgery.
