Specialized Knee Cap Dislocation Surgery for Pets in Whitehouse Station, NJ
At Hunterdon Hills Animal Hospital in Whitehouse Station, NJ, we specialize in knee cap dislocation surgery, also known as patellar luxation repair, for pets suffering from this common orthopedic issue. A dislocated knee cap can lead to significant pain and mobility challenges, making timely surgical intervention essential for your pet’s quality of life. Our dedicated team is committed to providing advanced surgical solutions tailored to your pet’s needs.
Patellar luxation occurs when the kneecap slips out of its normal position, often due to congenital factors or trauma. Our veterinarians conduct thorough evaluations, including physical examinations and imaging, to assess the severity of the dislocation. Based on these findings, we develop a personalized surgical plan to realign the knee cap and stabilize the joint, helping to restore your pet's mobility and comfort.
After surgery, we prioritize your pet’s recovery and overall well-being. Our team provides detailed post-operative care instructions, including pain management strategies and guidelines for activity restrictions. We may also recommend physical therapy to aid in rehabilitation, helping your pet regain strength and mobility while minimizing the risk of future dislocations.
If your pet is experiencing knee pain or you suspect a knee cap dislocation, contact Hunterdon Hills Animal Hospital at (908) 534-2321. Our compassionate team is here to provide you with the guidance and support you need throughout the treatment process. Together, we can help your beloved companion return to a pain-free, active lifestyle.
