Orthopedic Surgery

We perform many types of orthopedic (bone) pet surgeries in our clinic. Because we want to ensure that our patients receive the best possible outcome, we occasionally refer them to board-certified orthopedic surgeons to perform back surgery and other very complex surgeries.

Leg fractures are the most common orthopedic problem presented at our clinic and usually result from a mishap with an automobile. They can be treated in a variety of ways depending on the location and type of fracture. We can apply a cast to treat certain fractures; however, many fractures will require surgical intervention. These treatments will be specific to each pet and will be discussed in further detail with your veterinarian.

Please contact us if you have any questions about these procedures or if you think your pet might benefit from them.
