I was just assisting the doctor I work with on an ACL repair. However the patient was a big dog.
I have only seen a handful of cases of small dogs with ruptured ACL's. Most of the small dogs that come in for orthopedic care are in for luxating patellas. A coworker is actually in the same predicament as you. She has her little one on Previcox until she can afford the surgery.
Another thing is that most often a lot of specialty hospitals will offer other veterinarians and their supporting staff discounts. Have you looked into that at all? |
