Managed well, general anaesthesia is very safe. We minimise the risk by knowing your pet’s health status through their medical history, physical examination, and, if needed, supplementary tests (such as blood tests, chest xrays). We tailor the anaesthetic protocol to your pets requirements, and will discuss any special considerations with our visiting anaesthetists as needed.
Specialist Anaesthetists
We have visiting anaesthetists that are great for long or complicated anaesthetics. Whilst no anaesthetic is 100% safe, the skills and experience of an anaesthetist can be very reassuring.
If your pet has other health problems, is old, or if you are worried about the anaesthesia in any way, then speak to us on 1300 838 336. We can discuss then costs and benefits of this amazing service.
