Orthopedic Pet Surgery

Cruciate, patella luxation, and hip surgery

Orthopedic surgery is just one of the many types of surgery offered at North Shore Veterinary Clinic. Rather than referring to a single surgery, orthopedic surgery is an umbrella term used to describe several bone and joint repair procedures.

Conditions that we do offer at our clinic are listed below:

• Limb Amputations 
• FHO (Femoral Head Ostectomy)

For any other orthopedic surgeries, we refer to a trusted veterinary partner, however, we can assist with pre-operative bloodwork and x-rays as needed.

Any pet that undergoes orthopedic surgery will require at least two weeks of restricted exercise and constant monitoring. It’s important to understand that almost all orthopedic surgeries come with a lengthy recovery time and, depending on how well your pet is doing towards the end of their recovery, we may recommend canine rehabilitation.
