Surgeon

Anyone have any recommendations for a veterinary surgeon?
My Springer tore her CCL (think ACL in humans) getting up into my pickup truck.
1st hand knowledge is appreciated as I can certainly google anyone out there.
Thanks!

CAVES

Capital Area Veterinary Emergency and Specialty

34 months ago they saved my Springer's life with a 2-1/2 hour surgery.

Now 12, she is still going strong.

I 100% recommend them!

Another strong vote for CAVES. They took great care of our labradors, past and present.

The only other suggestion would be Tufts Veterinary Hospital.

We never used Tufts but several friends have with excellent results.

...at CAVES Concord. One of the nicest guys you will ever meet and a great surgeon. Has been in one of my Golden's abdomen twice in the last year.

Thanks all! Working on a consult from a surgeon recommended by a friend!
