Welcome to OrthoVetInfo!
I created this space so I can share my experience and insights as a veterinary orthopedic surgeon,
offering clear and approachable veterinary orthopedics content that hopefully can be valuable
for owners and veterinary professionals with similar interests.
I invite you to explore the Clinical Cases section, a dedicated space where we examine real-life orthopedic challenges
encountered in veterinary practice, the treatment strategies and the clinical outcome.
