Can’t thank you guys enough I have my dog back. It was a long eight weeks, but it was so worth it. She’s back to swimming and playing and being herself.

Dr. Alley performed the TTA surgery on our 9 year old chocolate lab, Nala. We (and Nala) could not be more pleased with the outcome. Two months post-op, she seems totally restored to her old athletic self. Amazing results!

I've had nothing but wonderful experiences here with both Dr. Pilgeram and Dr. Alley, and the techs! From the very beginning when I was panicking about what to do about my dog's luxating patella, they were helpful and extremely quick about getting him in for a consultation and then surgery. They took so much time explaining everything to me, and reassuring me when I was being a neurotic mess about my boy. He ended up having both patellas done (on separate occasions) and both times the process was extremely smooth and my dog is doing great! The post-op instructions are extremely clear and thorough and Tattle is doing better than ever, and I expect he'll be back to all of his regular activities soon. It's so scary having to go through anything like this with your dog, but if you have to, I highly recommend Pet Orthopedics. Tattle and I are so grateful to get back to what he loves (going fast).

My 7 year old lab Chief had a really bad limp. After trying rest and anti inflammatory meds to no avail, my normal vet referred me to Pet Orthopedics. They diagnosed and preformed surgery for a torn ACL and meniscus. The staff and Dr. were all kind and patient. Scheduling and follow up visits were a breeze. After 8 weeks Chief is no longer limping and raring to go on adventures. Can’t thank the staff at Pet Orthopedics enough!

My cockapoo tore her meniscus and ACL. Dr. Alley was extremely reassuring about my dog’s surgery, as well as very detailed in what would occur during surgery and post- surgery. She was so knowledgeable, yet kind and understanding. I would highly recommend her . She is wonderful!

My dog Roxy had patella surgery and it was the best decision we made for her to have it. She had stopped moving a few months prior; it was obvious she was in pain. She is a small dog, so we were fortunate Dr. Ally and Dr Pilgeram took on her case. The surgery was a success and within a couple of days she was back up and moving, putting weight on her leg with ease. It has been two weeks, and you would have never have known she had surgery, she is doing great!

My dog Lexi had knee surgery 8 weeks ago and she is back to her normal rambunctious self!!! Thank you!! Pet Orthopedics!!! Job well done!!!

Dr. Alley and the crew were wonderful with Zeus. Their instructions, and responses when I had questions after surgery, were quick and thorough. Zeus is making a splendid recovery.

We are incredibly grateful for the quality of care we received to a very important member of our family. The procedure as well as the follow-up was amazing. The smooth recovery is thanks to the the great care. We are grateful.

Very caring knowledgeable staff and Doctor. Very professional with easy access if any questions before and after surgery as well as recovery period. Thank you for taking such good care of our Shelby.

Incredible knowledge and results for my 215 lb English Mastiff Winston

This was the best experience I could have asked for in the situation. We were able to schedule our appointment within a week of diagnosis, this was amazing as most places were 5 weeks out plus. All my questions were answered even after hours. Expectations for recovery were clear and easy to follow. My Miss Penny is back to playing, running and being her happy little self.

We were recommend after my elder half pug/half Chihuahua Kevin broke his leg, they recommended surgery, they explained everything making me feel comfortable. From the start they made me feel like family the recovery went smoothly. They made sure everything was very well taken care of. I would recommend to everyone that needs an orthopedic surgeon. Their are the best.

I was very happy with my experience here. They did the surgery less than a week after calling and were extremely good on the follow ups. Now my pup is up and running around on all four legs again!
