Laparoscopic Neutering

Things to remember before arriving for your appointment.
- Please do not feed your pet from 10pm the evening before surgery. You may be asked to feed a small meal at 7am on the day for puppies or kittens under 12 weeks old. It is also important that rabbits have access to food at all times.
- Water is allowed up to the appointment.
- Bring a few things to make your pet feel at home – for instance, their favourite food, a small toy or blanket – but please do not bring bulky beds.
Medical notes
Please check your vet has sent all relevant information, notes and X-rays to us in advance. Please bring any medication your pet is currently receiving.
Appointment times
If you can’t make an appointment, please let us know as soon as possible so we can free up that time for someone else.
Terms of business
We will provide an estimate of the likely costs involved. However, the final costs (particularly in complex cases) may only become apparent at the end of treatment. Usually, the initial treatment is estimated prior to surgery and a guide of what ongoing expense there may be over several weeks can be given. All accounts must be settled in full at the time of your pet’s discharge from the practice. We will, of course, be happy to complete your insurance forms for your reimbursement, if your pet is covered by medical insurance. If you would like us to claim directly from your insurers, this needs to be agreed by us in advance to allow time to speak to them. In addition, we charge a non-reclaimable fee of £32.50 for this service.
Referral practice information form
