Dental Authorization Form

Thank you for choosing Santa Rosa Veterinary Hospital. Please fill out the following form as thoroughly as possible so we can get to know your pet before their appointment with us. If you are in need of immediate assistance, please contact us at 707-544-1313.

It is very difficult to thoroughly examine an animal’s mouth in the exam room. We need to check every surface, probe every pocket, and x-ray all the teeth. Until we have thoroughly examined your pet’s teeth in detail under anesthesia, we cannot know how extensive his/her dental procedure will be, if there is a need for extractions, or if other more advanced techniques are needed. Therefore, we cannot provide an absolute estimate of the cost for dental procedures. We will try to contact you if anything other than a routine cleaning procedure is needed.

If we cannot connect on the phone while we are working, how would you like us to proceed:

PERSONAL ITEMS WITH PET

ALL Animals are dismissed only during office hours: Monday thru Friday from 9am to 6pm Saturday from 9am to 2pm. We are closed Sundays.
