Expert Veterinary Orthopaedics Near Auchenflower

Advanced joint and spinal surgery, just minutes up Boundary Road.

The steep, hilly streets of Auchenflower are beautiful, but navigating them day after day can put immense strain on your dog’s joints, increasing the risk of cruciate ligament injuries. When surgery is required, BoneVet provides inner-west families with elite, independent orthopaedic care just up the road in Bardon.

We bridge the gap between primary care and specialist referral, providing hospital-grade diagnostics and advanced surgical repairs without the rigid protocols of a multi-tiered corporate network.

Advanced Surgery for Auchenflower Pets:

Cruciate Reconstruction (TPLO)

We let the science guide the surgery. TPLO is considered the absolute gold standard for cranial cruciate ligament tears, yielding superior long-term outcomes.

On-Site Diagnostic Imaging

Our surgical suites are supported by immediate, high-definition 40kW digital radiography, meaning your pet is assessed and treated rapidly.

Independent Second Opinions

If your primary vet has recommended surgery, you can book directly with us for an evidence-based second opinion and a clear surgical estimate.
