Orthopedic Surgery

Orthopedic conditions affect your pet's bones, joints, and musculoskeletal system — and they can significantly impact your pet's quality of life if left untreated. Our orthopedic surgical services include:

  • Cruciate ligament repair (TPLO and other techniques)

  • Fracture repair and stabilization

  • Luxating patella correction

  • Hip and joint procedures

  • Bone plating and pinning

  • Amputation when necessary

If your dog or cat is limping, reluctant to bear weight, or has been diagnosed with a joint or bone condition, our team can evaluate whether surgery is the right path forward and talk you through all available options.

Your Pet's Safety Is Our Priority

Every surgical patient at CAWLM receives a thorough pre-surgical evaluation, including bloodwork and a physical exam, to ensure they are healthy enough for anesthesia. During surgery, your pet is continuously monitored by our trained team using advanced anesthetic monitoring equipment.

We use the safest, most modern anesthetic protocols and pain management practices so your pet is comfortable before, during, and after their procedure.

Post-Surgical Care & Recovery

Our team will send you home with detailed recovery instructions and is always available to answer questions. Follow-up visits are included to monitor healing and ensure your pet is on track. We're with you every step of the way.
