Exciting New Procedures:

ACL Rupture (Unstable Knee Joint)

We offer a new anatomically aligned technique for correcting the instability caused by rupture of ligaments and tearing of cartilage inside the knee joint. Our reconstructive knee surgeries are less expensive than TPLO surgeries and less painful and easier on your pet. You can expect your pet to be returning to function and walking on the injured leg within 1-2 days after surgery. Our fees run from $800.00 - $2,000.00 depending on your pet's size and how many implants are required. Our techniques do not require cutting of the bone, bone plates, or saws. We use implants originally designed and licensed for use in human orthopedic ligament replacement surgery. Dr. Townsley has exceptional experience in orthopedics and has performed over 300 of these surgeries!

A carefully performed Recession Sulcotomy and correction of the alignment problems associated with luxation of the patella (kneecap) provides great results in toy and small breed pets suffering the discomfort and pain of these conditions. Our prices typically run 1/2 to 1/3 that of local referral facilities and Dr. Townsley has training and experience with orthopedic surgery going back to 1978.
