Knee Cap Dislocation Surgery for Pets at Skillman Animal Clinic in Sunnyside, NY

At Skillman Animal Clinic in Sunnyside, NY, we specialize in knee cap dislocation surgery, a critical procedure for pets suffering from patellar luxation. This condition occurs when the kneecap dislocates from its normal position, leading to pain, lameness, and difficulty in movement. Our experienced veterinary team is dedicated to providing effective surgical solutions that help restore your pet’s mobility and overall quality of life.

Knee cap dislocation surgery aims to realign the kneecap and stabilize the joint to prevent future dislocations. The surgical procedure involves repositioning the kneecap and may include repairing the surrounding soft tissues and ligaments. We utilize advanced techniques to ensure the best possible outcome, allowing your pet to return to their normal activities with minimal discomfort and a quicker recovery time.

Before proceeding with knee cap dislocation surgery, our veterinarians conduct a thorough examination, including diagnostic imaging, to assess the severity of the dislocation and determine the appropriate surgical approach. We believe in transparent communication with pet owners, discussing the procedure, potential risks, and recovery expectations in detail. Our team is here to support you and your pet throughout the entire process.

If your pet is experiencing symptoms of a dislocated knee cap, such as limping or difficulty walking, trust Skillman Animal Clinic in Sunnyside, NY, for expert surgical care.
