Femoral Head Ostectomy (FHO) Surgery for Pets in Prattville, AL
At Partners For Pets in Prattville, AL, we perform Femoral Head Ostectomy (FHO) surgery to help pets suffering from hip pain due to injury, arthritis, or hip dysplasia. This orthopedic procedure removes the damaged femoral head, eliminating bone-on-bone contact and reducing pain.
FHO surgery is often recommended for small to medium-sized dogs and cats when hip joint damage cannot be corrected with medication or other therapies. It offers long-term pain relief and allows pets to regain use of the leg through natural scar tissue formation.
Our experienced veterinary team carefully evaluates your pet to determine if FHO is the best option. We use advanced surgical techniques and follow strict safety protocols to ensure a smooth procedure and successful recovery.
Rehabilitation and post-surgical care are key to helping your pet regain strength and mobility. Our team provides detailed recovery plans and ongoing support to guide your pet through the healing process and back to a more active life.
