Understanding Orthopedic Surgery for Pets
Orthopedic surgery focuses on treating conditions that affect a pet’s bones, joints, ligaments, and tendons. These issues can result from injury, congenital deformities, or degenerative diseases such as arthritis.
Common reasons pets may need orthopedic surgery include:
Cruciate ligament tears (similar to ACL injuries in humans)
Bone fractures or dislocations
Luxating patella (kneecap instability)
Hip or elbow dysplasia
Chronic joint degeneration
Growth plate injuries in young animals
Our Surgical Expertise and Safety Standards
At Davis Pet Hospital, every surgery is performed following AAHA-accredited safety and anesthesia protocols. Your pet’s comfort, safety, and recovery are always our top priorities. We provide:
- ZCustomized anesthesia and pain management: We provide ongoing pain management and relief tailored to each pet’s age, size, and health history.
- ZAdvanced monitoring: We continuously track heart rate, oxygen levels, and blood pressure.
- ZComprehensive pre-surgical evaluation: Before surgery, we thoroughly evaluate your pet's condition with bloodwork and physical exams to ensure they're ready for anesthesia.
- ZCareful post-operative supervision: After the procedure, we provide gentle monitoring as your pet wakes up, with a dedicated recovery plan for at-home care.
Recovery and Rehabilitation
Successful orthopedic surgery doesn’t end in the operating room—it continues through recovery. Our team will create a detailed post-surgery plan that may include restricted activity, pain management, and follow-up evaluations to monitor healing progress. For many pets, gradual reintroduction of exercise and weight management can greatly enhance recovery outcomes.
