Just got our estimate for the following:

Pre-Op blood test.................... 65.04
I.V. catheter/fluids................. 55.63
Routine scaling/polishing - canine...142.78
surgical pack (minor)................ 35.36
tumor removal (small)................ 61.19
Radiograph (2 views) for OFA review..129.19
Biopsy (if necessary).................94.88

Total..584.07

I think this is a pretty good deal for here in silicon valley.

Your thoughts are much appreciated.

I think that is a damn good deal for where you live. Here in Wi at the clinic I work at it would be ~650-700. didn't see any anesthesia, is that included in the dental or did they forget to add that charge.

Did they give you a clue or do a needle aspirate to see if they knew what the tumor was?

Thanks !

Yes anesthesia is included !

The tumor is of virul nature and nuisance only according to the DR. He said the dog is in absolute perfect health and a beauty.

We went to his dad many many years ago and I think we have finally got us a keeper Vet thank Dog !

As in posting this I looked outside to see him staulking a bird in the bushes LOL.

He is my pal and will get nothing but the best for all his life .

Thanks again I thought it was a great deal from all the other high estimates. Some over a thousand dollars.
