Fractures are breaks in a bone, while dislocations occur when a joint is forced out of position. Both are extremely painful and require immediate veterinary attention to prevent long-term complications.
At Arlington Animal Clinic, our team knows how distressing orthopedic injuries can be for pets and their families. We combine years of surgical experience with advanced technology to stabilize injuries, relieve pain, and support your pet’s recovery at every step.
Prompt fracture and dislocation treatment restores function, prevents infection, and helps pets regain comfort. Jacksonville pet owners trust us for fast, compassionate care, thorough diagnostics, and access to comprehensive aftercare and pain management.
We are committed to providing the highest standard of care for every injured pet that walks through our doors. Our veterinarians deliver personalized orthopedic treatment plans based on each pet’s unique needs and health history.
Pet owners can expect a streamlined, reassuring process when seeking treatment for a fracture or dislocation at our clinic. We prioritize comfort, communication, and rapid pain relief while developing the right plan for your pet.
Upon arrival, our veterinary team conducts a thorough triage and assessment. This includes evaluating your pet’s pain level, checking for signs of shock, and immobilizing the limb or joint to prevent further injury. Immediate stabilization is always our top priority.
Next, our clinic uses advanced digital radiology and, when needed, ultrasound to identify the exact location and severity of the injury. Dr. Mike Deutsch, with 28 years of surgical experience, leads our assessment to ensure the most accurate diagnosis and treatment plan.
Once the injury is diagnosed, our veterinarians discuss all options with you, including surgical and non-surgical treatments. We use state-of-the-art techniques for fracture repair, realignment, or joint reduction. Pain management and anesthesia protocols are tailored for maximum safety and comfort.
After the procedure, your pet will recover in a quiet, monitored environment. We provide detailed instructions for at-home care, including medications, activity restrictions, and follow-up appointments to monitor healing. Our team also offers Phovia Light Therapy to accelerate wound healing and minimize downtime.
Proper treatment of fractures and dislocations is vital to prevent ongoing pain, chronic lameness, or permanent joint damage. Immediate veterinary care maximizes your pet’s chances for full recovery and reduces the risk of long-term complications.
Untreated injuries can lead to infection, arthritis, loss of function, and even life-threatening shock. Early intervention protects your pet’s quality of life and supports a safe, comfortable return to activity.
Quick, expert care allows your pet to regain the use of their limb and enjoy pain-free movement sooner. This helps maintain muscle strength and joint function throughout recovery.
Fast stabilization and treatment help avoid infection, abnormal bone healing, and chronic arthritis. Our veterinarians provide the ongoing support needed to minimize these risks.
Well-managed orthopedic injuries promote long-term mobility and overall wellness. Pets enjoy better quality of life, less pain, and a smoother return to normal routines after care.
If your pet experiences trauma, a fall, or any sudden lameness, immediate assessment is critical. Watch for these common signs that may indicate a bone or joint injury:
If you notice any of these symptoms, contact Arlington Animal Clinic right away. Delaying veterinary care can worsen injuries and threaten your pet’s long-term health.
Orthopedic care is not routine; it is required any time a fracture or dislocation occurs. Immediate evaluation is necessary after any suspected trauma, fall, or accident.
Some pets, such as active young animals or certain breeds, may be more prone to accidental injuries. Senior pets with bone loss or arthritis are also at higher risk for fractures.
Our veterinary team at Arlington Animal Clinic provides personalized recommendations based on your pet’s activity level, medical history, and lifestyle. Always seek professional assessment after any suspected injury to ensure your pet receives timely, effective care.
