  • Deep sedation includes sedation with an injectable agent and reversal at the end of the procedure. The cost of the procedure itself is additional. It is strongly recommended to get pre-sedation bloods done for patients undergoing deep sedation as it can be extremely taxing on their body with out the support normally provided in a full general anaesthetic such as supplemental oxygen and fluids.

    Small Dog/Cat: $66 + Consult Fees

    Medium Dog: $88 + Consult Fees

    Large Dog: $110 + Consult Fees

  • All soft tissue surgeries are billed using the same format: general anaesthetic fee + surgery time + medications + consumables.

    Factors that may change these values include the size and breed of the animal, the duration of the surgery and the anticipated post operative care required.

    For this reason, all soft tissue surgeries require a consultation prior to booking so the vet can assess the site and provide an accurate financial estimate.
