​Simcoe Animal Hospital doctors perform a variety of surgeries in our surgery suite.  Surgeries range from spay and neuters to more advanced surgeries such as bladder stone removal.  Your animal is monitored by a highly trained Registered Veterinary Technican and various monitoring devices that monitor heart rate and function, oxygen levels in the blood stream, body temperature and blood pressure during surgery.
​
Upon admission, the technician will present you with a surgical consent form.  This form will confirm the surgery, as well as give you the option to authorize a microchip to be implanted at that time.  We will require your signature on the form, as well as a phone number where we will be able to contact you throughout the day.

Pre-Surgery Checklist

• No food the night before surgery after 9:00pm
• Water overnight is ok, remove water morning of surgery
• Give no medications the morning of the surgery, unless instructed by the veterinarian
• Give lots of extra hugs & kisses
