Referral Surgery
Small Animal Orthopedic
TPLO (Tibial plateau levelling osteotomy)
The TPLO surgery here at the Prescott Animal Hospital is done by two of our veterinarians Dr. Alexandra Knoepfli and Dr. Jessica Knight under the supervision of a recently retired specialty surgeon, Dr. Parker. Dr. Parker is a board certified orthopedic surgeon who has agreed to assist our veterinarians with the TPLO surgeries to ensure they are the same standard of excellence as when performed by boarded surgeons. We would be happy to work with you and your current veterinarian as a referral surgery or we would be more than happy to welcome you as a new client to our practice.

They accept surgical and medical referrals from veterinarians across Eastern Ontario. This minimizes travel time for sick or injured animals requiring specialized care, as well as access to a surgical specialist when required. Our climate controlled facility allows us to do surgeries, including castrations all year round. All castrations include scrotal ablation which results in a closed, rather than an open incision. This type of incision is less attractive to flies and heals faster. It also decreases post-operative complications, such as swelling, risk of infection, need for cold hosing, and muscle stiffness.
