Surgical Consent

I acknowledge that my pet is scheduled for an anesthetic procedure. I have been informed that advances in anesthesia and anesthetic monitoring techniques have made routine procedures relatively safe, with low rates of complications. However, I understand that occasionally problems can occur due to pre-existing conditions that are not evident during routine histories and physical examinations. I understand that some risk always exists with anesthesia, even in apparently healthy animals, including the possibility of death. I have discussed my concerns with the veterinarian and understand that it may be necessary to provide additional medical or surgical treatment to my pet in the event of unforeseen circumstances. I realize that no guarantee, legal or ethical, can be made to me regarding the outcome of any procedure performed. I hereby authorize the use of anesthetics and other medications, as well as any such additional treatment, as deemed necessary by the veterinarian. I understand that hospital personnel will be employed in treating my pet. I have carefully read, and fully understand, this consent. The fees associated with these services have been explained to me, and I agree to pay such fees at the time my pet is released from the hospital. *

I have read and agree.

To minimize problems the doctors and staff at Chester Valley Veterinary Hospital have recommended that my pet be screened prior to anesthesia. *

I Consent to the recommended pre-anesthetic diagnostics.
I Decline to the above recommended pre-anesthetic diagnostic.

Please be aware that if your pet is geriatric (over 10 years of age) preanesthetic bloodwork is mandatory for the anesthetic safety of your pet.

I hereby certify that I am the owner or authorized agent of the above-named animal and have the authority to execute this consent. *

I have read and certify.
