ORTHOPAEDIC SURGERY

As Chahuahua we offer orthopaedic and trauma consultations for your dog and cat.

Orthopaedics focuses on damage to bones, muscles, tendons and joints.

Traumatology, in some cases, it requires immediate surgery (fractures, dislocations, musculotendinous injuries) or delayed secondary surgery (ligamentoplasty following a rupture of the cruciate knee ligaments, for example, recurrent instability of the patellas, etc.).

So, if you notice a discomfort for your pet come and talk to us.
All our vets can see you for the initial consultation. Additional examinations are then carried out at the clinic (radiology) or by our partners (scanner, MRI, arthroscopy).

Dr Haas and our orthopaedic vets will give you an orthopaedic and traumatology consultation by appointment at the clinic.
A number of factors should prompt you to seek medical advice:

• La douleur : elle reste le meilleur indicateur pour pousser à la consultation
• Growth: it's important not to delay diagnosing a joint malformation (hip or elbow dysplasia) or cartilage fragmentation. The earlier the treatment, the better your pet's life will be.
• Functional impotence: Limitation of walking perimeter, joint stiffness, difficulty with everyday movements,
• Joint instability, stiffness or locking.
