I authorize Dr. Angel Thompson to perform surgery on my pet. I have discussed the preoperative test results and the surgical procedure with the referring veterinarian. I recognize that there are risks and hazards involved with the recommended surgical procedure, including anesthetic risks and, rarely, death. I understand the medical reasoning for the recommended surgical treatment. I will be contacted during treatment if unexpected findings occur or complications arise, so that treatment can be modified to best manage my
pet’s condition. I realize that no guarantee or warranty can ethically or professionally be
made regarding the results or a cure.
Specific postoperative recommendations for activity restriction, medications, monitoring,
and recheck evaluations will be provided. Although serious complications are uncommon to rare, strict adherence to post-surgical care is necessary to minimize potential complications, which may necessitate additional treatment or procedures.
After fully discussing the planned surgical procedure, associated risks and benefits, and restrictions for recovery with your doctor or the surgeon, please sign the consent for surgery below:
