Procedure Costs
What surgery, imaging, anesthetic dentistry and hospitalization are built from — and why the same procedure costs twice as much across town.
- Procedure Costs Dog MRI Cost vs CT, Ultrasound and X-Ray One imaging center lists an MRI at $3,445 and a radiologist's read at $270. What moves an imaging bill is the anesthetic and the machine, not the doctor.
- Procedure Costs Dog Dental Cleaning Cost Under Anesthesia One clinic bills a dental at $442, another starts at $2,050. What moves the number is where each quote draws its box — bloodwork, X-rays, extractions.
- Procedure Costs Extracapsular Repair vs TPLO: Where Bills Differ Two clinics publish all three cruciate prices. The gap between a lateral suture and a TPLO runs $900 to $1,347 — and the metal is the smallest part of it.
