No pet parent wants to see their companion in pain. Unfortunately, there are a number of orthopedic issues that can cause pain and discomfort in dogs and cats. While maintaining a healthy lifestyle for your pet can keep some problems at bay, there is still a chance that they could develop problems with their bones and joints as they age. At Companion Animal Hospital, we provide several orthopedic services in-house through a traveling expert orthopedic surgeon, Dr. Hicks.
