What Affects Final Pricing
The ranges listed above account for normal variation. Factors that influence where your pet falls within a range include:
- Pet weight: Larger animals require more anesthesia, larger surgical implants, and higher drug doses
- Procedure complexity: A simple lipoma removal costs less than a wide-excision sarcoma removal with reconstructive closure
- Number of regions (imaging): A single-region MRI costs less than a multi-region scan
- Number of extractions (dental): Each extraction adds $30-$80 to the dental cleaning cost
- Additional diagnostics: If X-rays, bloodwork, or other tests are needed beyond what is standard, these add to the total

Frequently Asked Questions About Pricing
Is the deposit applied to my treatment cost?
The $50 deposit secures your appointment date and is non-refundable. It is applied toward your total treatment cost, so it is not an additional fee — it is the first $50 of your total bill.
Are there any hidden fees?
No. Your estimate includes all anticipated costs — treatment, anesthesia (when applicable), standard diagnostics, and transport coordination. If any additional services are recommended during the appointment, you are contacted for approval before anything proceeds.
Can I get an estimate before committing?
Absolutely. Call or text 619-914-2990, or email info@cbxpetcare.com with your pet’s diagnosis, weight, and any records from your San Diego veterinarian. We provide a detailed estimate within 24 hours, with no obligation.
Do you offer payment plans?
For multi-session treatments like chemotherapy, you pay per session rather than the full course upfront. This naturally spreads the cost over the treatment period. Contact us to discuss payment options for your specific situation.
How does the Zelle discount work?
When you pay via Zelle, you receive a 3% discount on your total treatment cost. This discount is available because Zelle transactions have lower processing costs than credit card payments. The discount is applied to the treatment portion of your bill.
