We went to a board certified surgeon in Asheville and the cost was $1800. That included the ligament repair. If he were to need an x-ray during recovery, that would be 100 dollars more.
Our regular vet actually wanted a thousand more, and our regular vet is in a rural area, so perhaps that is the difference. good luck. It's a tough decision.
I would definitely get a second opinion about the necessity and also the cost. You might find the first surgeon is just pricey!
