Medially Luxating Patella (MLP)

MLP is a condition that affects the knee joint in both humans and animals, particularly dogs. It occurs when the kneecap (patella) moves out of its normal position within the groove of the femur (thigh bone) where it should glide smoothly.

In MLP, the kneecap tends to shift towards the inside (medially), causing discomfort, pain, and potential damage to the surrounding structures such as cartilage. This condition can lead to lameness, difficulty in walking or running, and overall mobility issues.

Our MyOwnVet Veterinary orthopaedic specialists are experienced in diagnosing and treating MLP to alleviate the symptoms and improve the quality of life for affected animals.

Medially Luxating Patella can be the culprit behind your pet’s knee pain and cartilage damage!

Limb Fractures

Limb fractures in pets refer to breaks or fractures that occur in the bones of the front or back legs. These fractures can result from trauma, accidents, or other causes, causing pain, limping, and difficulty in walking or bearing weight on the affected limb.

A veterinary evaluation is crucial to diagnose and treat limb fractures appropriately, which may involve immobilisation, casting, or surgical intervention to facilitate proper healing and restore mobility.

Your pet’s legs deserve the best care. Witness the power of stainless-steel plates in aiding the recovery process. It’s truly remarkable!

Pelvic Fractures

Pelvic fractures in pets are breaks or fractures that occur in the bones of the pelvic region, commonly caused by trauma or accidents. They can lead to pain, difficulty walking, swelling, and other symptoms.

Prompt veterinary attention is necessary to assess the severity and determine the appropriate treatment, which may include surgery or conservative management.

Most common fractures, but guess what? Surgery might not be necessary! Our experts will determine the ideal treatment plan for your furry friend.

Anterior Cruciate Ligament Tears

Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) Tears in pets refer to partial or complete tears in the ligament that connects the femur (thigh bone) to the tibia (shin bone) in the knee joint.

Pets with ACL tears often experience difficulty bearing weight on the injured leg and may hold it up or limp noticeably. It is important to seek veterinary care promptly if you suspect your pet has an ACL tear.

A veterinarian can perform a thorough examination, potentially including diagnostic imaging, to confirm the diagnosis and assess the severity of the injury.

Hip Dislocation

Whether caused by sudden trauma or underlying hip dysplasia, our experts are here to reveal the secrets of this common condition and provide effective treatment options for your pet. 

Rest assured that we prioritise your pet’s comfort and well-being, and our comprehensive approach ensures the best possible outcome. Discover how we can help your furry friend regain mobility and live a pain-free life.

Testimonials

Dr Ahmed, as you know, over the last few months we have been dealing with our Gussy Boy having Lymphoma, and the compassion and love you have shown us and our boy through this difficult time have helped us deal with a very hard loss. You looked after Gus like he was your own, you welcomed him in like he was family, and he loved you for it. Your love for animals is above what I’ve ever seen from any vet in my life, you are truly a wonderful man Ahmed, thank you for caring so much and making a tough time a little less painful and being there when we needed you.

Thank you so much for looking after him, we truly appreciate everything you have done for us and Gus. Jared, you also took Gus on as your own, its hard not to, right? Every time I spoke to you, your compassion was so soothing. He was your buddy for a couple of weeks and Gus absolutely loved going there because you guys made him part of your family. Thank you. I can’t thank you both enough for all you have done for us, Gussy Boy was a true star, and his personality rubbed off on anyone who knew him. Thank you once again

Lisa Greig

I just wanted to say thank you to Ahmed & Jared from My Own Vet for the honesty, care & compassion that they’ve shown to my family & our cat Fonzie over the last couple of weeks, including whilst we were overseas on holiday. We made the difficult decision to say goodbye to Fonze last night but the guys from My Own Vet went above & beyond the call of duty to ensure that our furry friend had the best possible yet most cost-effective treatment & was comfortable right up until the end. Ahmed & Jared’s love of animals truly shines through & we’re incredibly lucky to have them serving our community. Thanks guys.
