Help for Your Pet’s Paws and Joints
At Animal Care Center, we know that orthopedic issues can be a real pain, both for pets and for their concerned owners. Veterinary orthopedics is specialized care that focuses on diagnosing, treating, and preventing any musculoskeletal problems in your pet. Our practice frequently cares for pets with bone fractures and joint concerns.
When your pet is suffering from orthopedic issues, chronic pain can be debilitating and affect mobility. Without proper care, these conditions can negatively impact your pet’s well-being and overall health. Quality orthopedic care, however, can help your pet feel better.
- Pain Relief: Orthopedic conditions typically cause pain and discomfort. Our veterinarians can work to alleviate this pain and improve your pet’s quality of life.
