How it works
Consultations
- Consultations are by appointment only. Emergencies are covered under certain conditions (contact 03 67 34 08 94).
- It is recommended to keep the animal fasting in the event of anaesthesia.
- In the event of intermittent lameness or pain, it is useful to show short videos made at home.
- At the end of the consultation, tests may be recommended, including blood tests, X-rays, joint punctures, CT or MRI imaging.
- When surgery is recommended, an exhaustive presentation is made, specifying the objectives, risks and possible after-effects.
- An estimate is systematically provided for any examination or surgery.
Examples of orthopedic examinations and treatments
