6-Month Early Orthopaedic Screening Saves the Day!
Meet our little hero, Pickle!
At Hilton Veterinary Hospital, we’re thrilled to share Pickle’s story, where early screening saved the day. Thanks to early screening, this sweet pup was diagnosed early with Short Ulna Syndrome of Brachycephalic Breeds.
This proactive approach allowed us to intervene early, giving Pickle the best chance at a long, happy, and healthy life with minimal discomfort.
Early detection is the key to managing developmental conditions like Hip and Elbow Dysplasia, Osteochondritis Dissecans, and more!
In this case it was our loyal referring veterinarian, Dr Kath Sparks of MediVet Hillcrest, that made the early diagnosis here. It proves that early screening is beneficial in large and small breed dogs!!
Want to learn more? Speak to our resident Small Animal Surgeon, Dr. Sara Boyd, who has extensive experience in diagnosing and managing these conditions early, helping pets achieve the best possible quality of life.
Don’t wait until it’s too late! Call us at (033) 343 4602 or visit www.hiltonvethospital.co.za to book your screening.
Let’s give your furry friend the best chance at a pain-free future!
