Important Notes

  • All surgical procedures carry inherent anaesthetic and surgical risks, even when performed with the highest standard of care.

  • A pre-anaesthetic consultation and blood testing may be recommended or required depending on your pet’s age and health status (additional fees apply).

  • Desexing costs vary depending on species, sex, age, and weight of the animal.

  • Post-operative care (e.g. medications, rechecks, or complications) may incur additional charges.

  • Please follow all post-operative care instructions to ensure optimal healing and recovery.
