Advanced ACL Repair for Pets in St. Augustine
A torn anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) can cause significant pain and mobility issues for your pet. At Sandbridge Veterinary Center in St. Augustine, FL, we specialize in diagnosing and treating ACL injuries with advanced surgical techniques and comprehensive post-operative care. Our goal is to restore your pet’s mobility and improve their quality of life.
ACL injuries are common in active dogs and can occur suddenly during play or gradually from wear and tear. Symptoms include limping, reluctance to bear weight on the leg, and difficulty standing or sitting. Our veterinarians perform thorough evaluations and diagnostic imaging to confirm the injury and recommend the best treatment plan for your pet.
Treatment for a torn ACL often involves surgery, such as lateral suture stabilization or tibial plateau leveling osteotomy (TPLO), to stabilize the joint and promote healing. Following surgery, we provide detailed post-operative care instructions and rehabilitation options to support your pet’s recovery and minimize future risks.
At Sandbridge Veterinary Center, your pet’s health and comfort are our top priorities. If you suspect your pet has an ACL injury, don’t delay. Call us at (904) 901-4030 to schedule a consultation. Together, we’ll create a customized treatment plan to get your pet back on their paws and living life to the fullest.
