Surgery Facts - Dollars & Cents

I thought I would like to put some information about Webber's surgery here for informational purposes.

1. The Surgery was performed at the Manotick Veterinary Hospital (in Ottawa) http://www.manotickvet.com/contact_page.htm . The surgeon was, with Dr. Dawn Young assisting:

Denis P. Philibert, DVM , Diplomate ACVS 1994
Organization: Mobile Surgical Specialist
E-mail: dphilibert@rogers.com
Veterinary School: University of Montreal 1988
Additional Degrees: University of Saskatchewan 1992
Internship: University of Montreal 1989
Residency: University of Saskatchewan 1992


Dr. Philibert was very responsive to my questions from me, and always replied promptly to emails which I sent to him. I had a high confidence level in him even before the surgery, and I was certainly not disappointed. Dr. Philibert did point out to me that the cost will vary from one clinic to another. He charges a fee for surgery, and then the clinic charge for the rest ( anesthesia, meds, radiographs, etc). Price will vary depending on each clinic. Generally it will be around $3000.


Cost of Surgery (so far):

Cruciate Repair Surgeon Cost: $1950
Hospital Cost: $1038.40
Medications: $472.61

We will still have the cost of the 8-week x-rays, but hoping that is the last big charge.

Webber will also be doing:
3 Sessions of Hydro-therapy: $175.00 and
??? Physio Sessions: ???

Dr. Philibert recommended Carrie Smith at Osgoode Vet Services starting after his staples are removed. (2 weeks after surgery).

I think everything published made a bunch of sense. But, what about this?
what if you added a little content? I ain't suggesting your information isn't solid.
, however what if you added a title that grabbed folk's attention? I mean "Surgery Facts - Dollars & Cents" is a little plain. You should peek at Yahoo's front page and see how they create article headlines to get viewers interested.
You might try adding a video or a related
picture or two to grab people interested about what you've got to say. Just my opinion, it might bring your posts a little bit more interesting.
