Amazing Experience

We brought our mastiff/lab in for a limp and found out she needed TPLO surgery. I was so upset and scared about the surgery but the staff here made us so very comfortable and I truly knew that they loved our baby as much as we did. The surgery went awesome and she's on her way to a full recovery. I feel like family there and Dr. Bauer is just a gift! His love for pets is amazing and it comes through when you meet him. I would never go anywhere else for Orthopedic problems with any of our pets

Beware of TPLO diagnosis

Our dog was misdiagnosed as having a torn ligament. We mistakenly thought an expensive, new treatment option like TPLO, would be based on long term studies and standardardized procedures and surgical parts (plates, screws, etc...). TPLO has not been proven more effective than more traditional treatments and will put your dog through additional, unnecessary pain with a longer recovery. TPLO is about $3,000.00, much more than other proven ligament treatments, as is a big money maker for those surgeons performing it. If your dog has a torn ligament that requires surgery, please don't choose this option. Our dog still has the same symptoms he had prior to the surgery and he endured a lot of suffering for no reason.

Customer Service For Pets!

This is the most pet friendly facility with people who really care about animals. The Doctor was very compassionate and the facility was super clean. My dog wasn't even nervous being there!

Amazing experience!

Exceptional facility and extraordinary staff! The level of customer service was above and beyond, and the doctor was compassionate and took the time to answer all of my questions. I even got to stay and recover with "Jericho" after her knee surgery, which meant the world to me since I am a nervous pet owner. My dog's surgery was back in March and since then, I have recommended friends and even a neighbor to their great facility. Thank you, Colorado Canine Orthopedics! "Jericho" says thank you too!

Amenities
At Colorado Canine Orthopedics we specialize in spoiling people and their pets everyday. What is orthopedic surgery?  Orthopedic surgery is the branch of surgery that deals with the skeletal system and it’s associated muscles, ligaments, tendons, and joints. In our practice the realm of orthopedics also includes spinal surgery. Orthopedic/spinal surgical procedures yield some of the most rewarding results in veterinary medicine. Today’s advances in veterinary research and practice have made concerns such as anesthesia and pain control minimal. Because of the effectiveness of epidural analgesia, most patients undergoing hind limb surgery can go home comfortably the day of surgery. In these cases, clients are welcome to stay with their pet prior to and following surgery. Many 'Moms and Dads'. We have many 'pet lovers' movies available to relax with and promise to keep you supplied with soda, coffee and snacks. Internet access is readily available. Patients undergoing forelimb procedures usually spend one night in ICU following surgery. Parents can stay with their pets prior to forelimb surgery if they desire.
