My Azrael just had knee surgery for a torn ligament May 8th 12. Dr. Bruecker is a fantastic orthopedic surgeon. Doctors | Veterinary Medical And Surgical Group (VMSG) Since her leg was a bit bowed, he took out a tiny piece of bone above the knee to help align the leg better then re-connect the ligament. From start to finish the surgery and tests came to $4,600.00. They have to be confined for three months, but can be taken out in the grass, with a sling or harness & leash, for about a minute several times a day for the first month, then for a bit longer times the second month and longer time out the third month. She goes back Wednesday for a follow up.
