Tibial Plateau Leveling Osteotomy (TPLO)
TPLO is a surgical procedure used to treat cranial (or anterior) cruciate ligament rupture in the knee joints (stifle) of dogs. The objective of TPLO is to redesign the stifle so the cranial cruciate is unnecessary for joint stability.
Total rehabilitation time is normally 14 weeks and includes physical therapy, which plays an important role in the postoperative care and success in patients.
We are proud to be the premier facility in the Southeast offering TPLO surgery and one of the only facilities in the region providing in-house physical therapy as an integral part of this treatment to help get pets back on their paws.
