👋 Please welcome Francisco to our Team 👋

Fran is the most recent specialist in Small Animal Surgery to join the team at Arthurs Veterinary Specialists. This means that, from now on, you may hear from him instead when you reach out to discuss a case, or refer a case to us.

Like many other orthopaedic surgeons, Fran is particularly interested in joint replacements, minimally invasive surgery, and traumatology. More unusually, he has also got an interest in musculoskeletal ultrasound, and evidence-based medicine.

We are all very happy to have Fran part of the team 🙂

❤️ Meet the gorgeous Maple ❤️

Maple presented to us with a very rare condition of her right shoulder; supraspinatus muscle contracture.

This is where the muscle becomes tight, the shoulder cannot flex normally and this results in the patient having an outwardly rotated limb which you can see in the picture.

She was referred to us from her own vets who were unsure what was wrong, but thankfully we were able to diagnose the condition quickly on examination.

Maple had surgery with us, the tendon was released (cut) and this resulted in immediate restoration of movement in Maple's shoulder and normal limb alignment.

❤️Roscoe's story❤️

Little Roscoe came to us last week with a fractured hip and tibia following a road traffic accident.

A CT scan was performed which provides essential imaging and then on Thursday morning, his fractures were repaired.

As Roscoe is only 4 months old, he enjoyed lots of cuddles with the nurses and here you can see two of our Registered Veterinary Nurses, Matthew and Ruby, giving Roscoe a nice bath to make him feel comfortable and fresh.

He is currently healing well and receiving physiotherapy. Get well soon Roscoe❤️‍🩹

✨Arthroscopy✨

Arthroscopy in dogs is a minimally invasive surgical technique used to look inside and treat joints using a tiny camera (arthroscope) and small instruments.

Think of it as “keyhole surgery” for joints.

The patient is placed under general anaesthesia and small 2-3mm incisions are made. The camera sends magnified images to the screen and treatment can also be performed at the same time.

This surgery is most commonly performed on the shoulder, elbow, stifle (knee) and hock (ankle).

In this picture, Gareth Arthurs is operating on a springer spaniels elbow. Once surgery has been performed it should leave the patient feeling much more comfortable ✨🐾

✨It has been a busy start to the year at AVS and we would like to introduce Tom to our team. ✨

Tom will be working alongside our receptionist Sarah to help with client interactions and also working as an Animal Care Assistant behind the scenes of the practice to help with the running of the day.

Tom has settled in very nicely and we are very happy to have him as part of our team. Welcome Tom!
