Prior to some surgeries, we will require certain pre surgical diagnostic tests be performed. All animals over the age of 6 undergoing general anesthesia are required to have had a cbc and chemistry profile within the last 2 months. If not, then we will run these on the day of surgery. Certain growths that we have scheduled to remove will necessitate pre-operative chest films. We will let you know in advance if these or any other procedures would be recommended or required prior to performing surgery.
