Orthopaedic and soft tissue surgery
Orthopaedic Vet Services
We are able to perform a large range of surgical procedures from soft tissue surgeries to certain orthopaedic procedures.We utilise the MMP (Modified Maquet Procedure), a modern orthopaedic procedure, to address cruciate ligament injuries in dogs.
All surgeries are fully monitored – oxygen and carbon dioxide levels are closely observed on our capnograph and body temperature and blood pressure are regularly checked. All patients also receive intravenous fluids during their anaesthetic, pre-oxygenation if indicated and post-operative pain relief. In some instances, more complex surgeries require an overnight stay but basic cases are usually a day procedure.
