Our 3 yr old Cavalier has a luxating Patella (grade 3-4). It doesn't seem to bother him, but he has a slight limp. Has anyone had surgery to repair the floating...

Dr. Turner is the best orthopedic surgeon I know. I work in the field and wouldn't trust anybody else
Karen S. replied:
As said previously by Laura? Dr Turner is someone who I would use. He is excellent. He is the Dr who comes to do our "special" surgeries in our hospital.

Pleased to announce that Taki is doing very well after his knee surgery with Dr Radasch. He had the surgery Thursday and tried to jump on the bed last night. I had to take him to the regular vet to finish removing the bandages and they were so impressed with how well he was doing.

Hi Gail, I can tell you from human experience that where there is even a slight limp there is pain. Find out the success % of this surgery and if there is any pain meds recommended as an alternative to surgery. Good Luck. Christine Date: Wed, 30 Nov 2011 19:03:11 -0800

Valerie - I totally agree. My vet is the one who said he was not qualified to do it so he sent us to a specialist - Dallas Veterinary Surgical Center on Trinity Mills, just west of the Tollway - Dr. Radasch. He was very very good and they took great care of my dog.

Deanna, Dr Radash is our Dr too!

Thank you all so much for your feedback. Our vet did refer us to DFW vet surgeons. I have thought of A&M since our daughter goes there. Margi, I would love to hear more about your experience at A&M.
