Orthopaedic Surgery

Navigating orthopaedic concerns

Broken bones and cruciate ligament issues are frequent challenges in veterinary practice. These conditions can cause significant discomfort and mobility issues for pets, prompting concern among their owners.

For pets with fractures and injuries

Orthopaedic surgery is essential for pets suffering from fractures or cruciate ligament injuries. Cats, dogs, and other animals benefit from our treatments tailored to restore their mobility and well-being.

Restoring mobility with advanced care

Our veterinary team employs state-of-the-art techniques including plate and screw applications, external fixation devices, and specialized procedures like cruciate ligament repairs and knee cap surgeries. These advancements ensure precise and effective treatment options for your pet's orthopaedic needs.

What is the process?

Addressing orthopaedic issues begins with a thorough physical examination to assess the extent of the injury and immediate care needs. This includes providing pain relief, stabilising fractures with bandages or splints if necessary, and initiating antibiotics for any open wounds. Our on-site digital radiography system enables precise diagnosis of fractures, ensuring comprehensive treatment planning.

 

From initial assessment to surgical intervention, our focus remains on your pet's comfort and recovery. We understand the anxiety pet owners may feel during such procedures and strive to provide clear communication and compassionate care throughout the treatment journey.
