The total bill, including the LONG hospitalization was just under the $5800 quote($5725.97). The surgeon was nice and dropped his hospitalization to "boarding" for the last few days. The quote was $1500 for the MRI, which included tranquilization and any prep, the surgery and follow up care was quoted at $3400, he did have the emergency fee, because we showed up at 10:30pm, Wed. 3/18. Surgeon is DVM, M.S Diplomate, American College of Veterinary Surgeons.
State: Virginia Hospital: Blue Ridge Veterinary Associates (www.blueridgevets.com) A 24 hour hospital with emergency clinic. Address: 120 East Cornwell Lane, Purcellville, VA 20132 Cost: $5725.97 Date of surgery: March 19, 2015 What was included in cost (MRI?, days stay, ER? PT? meds for home, sling, etc.), this included MRI, ER, 10 days in the hospital and all meds while in. Comments: I don't think this includes the follow up visits and we don't have our sling yet, but I will update as we go along. The vets and tech staff were very helpful and the surgeon and I talked daily, I did not visit often since he was so anxiety ridden when I came and would need tranquilization when I left.
