What to Expect
Your animal will be cared for by a team consisting of a board certified anesthesiologist, anesthesia resident, registered veterinary technician, and a senior veterinary student who will develop individualized anesthetic plans for each patient. The senior student, under direct supervision, will administer anesthesia and monitor an individual patient throughout the anesthetic episode.
The companion animal and large animal anesthesiology services provide 24-hour support to VMC patients and clinical team members. They are housed within the Hospital for Companion Animals and Hospital for Farm Animals, respectively.
