Any x-ray or ultrasound images you have had done. Again, it is best to talk to your regular vet and let them know what you are doing and see if they want to communicate with me about their findings and thoughts about the case.

Seeing as the wonderful Dr Garcia is no longer here can anyone recommend a good orthopedist ?
Hether S. replied:
I don't think we have one here in town anymore. Dr.Garcia is in Santa Fe now- not too far away.
Haylee M. replied:
There are none here in LA. Dr Garcia is in Santa Fe. My hubs just had surgery Tuesday in abq. With dr Shawn baker. He did a great job with my husbands ACL reconstruction and meniscus repair. I would recommend him and his staff. I know it's a drive but they have been absolutely amazing.

I had a great experience with Dr. McKinley's group at Esp. Pres. Hospital. Close, no wait. I saw hand specialist Dr. Lyons for broken wrist.
Linda C. replied:
Thanks everyone. I have seen Dr Garcia before and was super pleased with him so I guess I'm making the trip to Santa Fe!
Brittney B. replied:
There is Dr. Sauer. I go see since 2011 with my broken ankle. He is also very good. Give them a call. Their number is 505-662-2020
Hi everyone! Do any of my Santa Fe friends have a suggestion on who is good Orthopedic Surgeon here in SF? Currently using Dr. Rise assigned by St. Vincent's but not...
Veronica G. replied:
Dr Baer is really good.
Kymberly G. replied:
My brother also went to Dr. Baer and loved him. Great staff.
John J. replied:
Dr. Guttman has an office in Santa but works out of Taos. He operates on the us ski team and is a fantastic surgeon. He did a full shoulder replacement on me this year.
Tim B. replied:
Beware of Dr. Baer! - he seriously botched my friend's hip replacement surgery and didn't tell him about the complications until my friend caught him in the act of trying to cover it up. A year and a half later, my friend still walks with a limp and has severe pain which he's treating with weekly heavy duty acupuncture sessions because he can't take narcotic pain meds.
Jeana E. replied:
Dr. Baer did my dad's knee replacement, and had great care during recovery and PT. In his case a totally positive experience.
