Though Not Required, We Strongly Recommend Blood Work For:
- All pets over 4 years old
- All small breed dogs (under 15 lbs as adults) regardless of age as they can be prone to liver issues.
- This is best when paired with a complete exam (see below), but we offer technician appointments through Ace of Spays for blood work only.
- Bloodwork needs to be done at least 2 business days before your spay/neuter appointment.
- Technician appointments for pre-operative blood work are offered on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Fridays from 3pm-4pm and on Wednesdays from 2pm-5pm.
- We have 4 packages to choose from.
Exams
A basic pre-surgical exam is done for each pet on the day of surgery. We look for conditions that increase anesthetic risk. We recommend a complete exam within 3 months of surgery. We recommend having this exam at your primary care practice however, we offer complete exams for our surgical patients on Wednesdays from 2pm-5pm by appointment. If you need more flexible time options, please reach out to your primary care veterinary practice. If you do not have one, Audubon Family Vets (856-387-7387) offers our clients a $25 first visit discount–just mention Ace of Spays.
Please note that Ace of Spays does not see routine appointments for any pets who are not coming through the spay/neuter clinic. Vaccines can be purchased as an extra on surgery days but are not handled during exams. The exam appointments are only for a complete exam and pre-operative bloodwork. The veterinarian doing the exam may not be the veterinarian performing the surgery.
