  • Withhold breakfast the morning of surgery (PLEASE DISREGARD FOR ALL EXOTIC PATIENTS).

  • In most cases, your pet will be able to go home any time after 3:00 pm or as instructed by the attending veterinarian.

At Home Post- Op Instructions

  • Detailed instructions for medications and post-op care will be reviewed when you arrive to pick up your pet.

  • Please pick up time will vary based on time of surgery and type of surgery performed. You will be called after the surgery to schedule the pick up time.
