Hi Barbara! I live in Alexandria too. I just got my Mary Jane back from Adrenal Surgery (Jan 9th). I go to Dr. Thomas Kawasaki at the Old Bridge Veterinary Hospital. 703-494-0094. I'll give you the total breakdown of her costs : VETTEST PRE-ANEST PANEL 31.00$ Complete Blood Count 29.00$ Ferret Adrenal Surgery 360.00$ Medical Waste Disposal 1.00$ HR/Oxygen Monitor 4.00$ Amoxidrops 15 ML 11.50$ DOCP injection 3.00$ Pepto Bismol (this cracked me up for some reason ^^) 3.50$ Vetalog 2 MG INJ/ML 10.03$ Her total was 453.03$.
