Relieve Their Pain
In addition to spay and neuter and soft tissue surgeries, Alpine Veterinary Hospital specializes in animal orthopedic surgery for all of your pet’s bone, joint, muscle and ligament needs. Specifically, we perform FHO (femoral head ostectomy), which removes the “ball” portion of the ball and socket hip joint to relieve chronic pain and replaces the joint with malleable scar tissue. For dogs that suffer from a rupture of the cranial cruciate ligament (the canine equivalent of an ACL), we offer both TPLO (tibial-plateau-leveling osteotomy) surgery and lateral sutures. Our expert veterinary team will help you determine which type of animal orthopedic surgery is right for your pet.
We Always Strive to Get Your Pet Moving as Quickly as Possible!
Our animal hospital is able to utilize our state-of-the-art equipment before and after surgery to ensure your pet is receiving the best care possible. For animal orthopedic surgery, this usually involves digital x-rays or ultrasound before surgery, as well as follow-up care as needed.
