Canine TPLO X-Rays showing surgical repair for Herston pets

Our Surgical Capabilities for Herston:

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.

Arthroscopic Surgery

We utilise minimally invasive "keyhole" camera incisions for developmental diseases of the elbow and shoulder, dramatically reducing post-operative recovery time.

On-Site Diagnostic Imaging

Our surgical suites are supported by immediate, high-definition 40kW digital radiography, meaning your pet is assessed and treated without delay.
