Advanced imaging plays a critical role in diagnosing and treating many complex conditions. At South Paws Veterinary Surgical Specialists, our on-site CT scanner provides detailed, cross-sectional images that allow our specialists to evaluate your pet in ways that traditional X-rays often cannot.

This advanced technology helps us gain valuable insights into orthopedic, neurologic, and other surgical conditions, allowing us to develop the most appropriate treatment plan for your pet.

📞 Contact South Paws Veterinary Surgical Specialists today to schedule a consultation and learn how CT imaging can support your pet's care.

❤️🐾At South Paws Veterinary Surgical Specialists, we believe the best outcomes happen when veterinarians work together.

Your family veterinarian is your pet’s primary care provider. They handle wellness exams, vaccines, routine diagnostics, preventive care, and ongoing health management. 💪They know your pet’s history and are often the first to recognize when something needs closer attention.

When advanced care is needed, board-certified veterinary specialists step in. These doctors complete additional years of training through internships, residencies, and board certification in focused fields such as surgery or dentistry. 🦷🦴They manage complex conditions, perform advanced procedures, and support detailed diagnostic and treatment planning.

Family veterinarians and specialists work as a team, not in place of one another. ❤️This collaboration ensures pets receive the right level of care at the right time.

At South Paws, we are proud to support referring veterinarians and partner in delivering compassionate, advanced surgical care for pets when it matters most. Pet owners can rely on their family veterinarian to guide them when specialty care is appropriate.

At South Paws Veterinary Surgical Specialists, we know that even veterinary professionals sometimes need the support of a trusted surgical team for their own beloved pets. 🐾

Meet Prudence (“Prue”), the cherished companion of one of our credentialed veterinary technicians. When Prue’s mom noticed she was uncomfortable and struggling to get settled, she brought her in for evaluation right away.

Advanced CT imaging identified a spinal issue at the L3-L4 region, allowing our team to move quickly toward treatment. Thanks to the expertise and prompt care provided by Dr. Newton and our surgical team, Prue is now recovering comfortably and doing well.

Stories like Prue’s are a reminder of the importance of advanced diagnostics, early intervention, and specialized veterinary care when pets show signs of pain or mobility changes.

At South Paws Veterinary Surgical Specialists, we are proud to provide compassionate, expert surgical care not only for our patients, but also for the pets of our own veterinary family. The trust we place in our team is the same trust we provide to every client who walks through our doors.

Stay tuned for updates on Prue’s recovery journey. ❤️

🩺🐾 A torn cranial cruciate ligament (CCL) is the most common causes of hind leg lameness and knee pain in dogs. Similar to the ACL in humans, the CCL helps stabilize the knee joint. When this ligament becomes torn or damaged, the knee becomes unstable, leading to pain, limping, difficulty standing, and the development of arthritis over time.

At South Paws Veterinary Surgical Specialists, we offer advanced TPLO surgery (Tibial Plateau Leveling Osteotomy) to help restore comfort, mobility, and quality of life for dogs with CCL injuries. During a TPLO procedure, the angle of the tibia is carefully adjusted to stabilize the knee joint and reduce abnormal movement. 🦴A specialized metal plate is then placed to support healing and long-term function.

Recovery after TPLO surgery includes pain management, restricted activity, and post-operative rehabilitation to help your dog heal safely and return to normal activity as quickly as possible.

🐾If your dog is limping, avoiding activity, or showing signs of knee pain, early diagnosis and treatment are important. Contact South Paws Veterinary Surgical Specialists to schedule a consultation with our board-certified veterinary surgeon and learn more about TPLO surgery and CCL treatment options for dogs.

Healing takes oxygen — and South Paws Veterinary Surgical Specialists is proud to offer advanced Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) for veterinary patients.
HBOT is a safe, non-invasive treatment that helps support healing by delivering high concentrations of oxygen under increased atmospheric pressure. During treatment, pets relax comfortably in a hyperbaric chamber for approximately one hour — and many patients nap peacefully throughout the session.
The increased pressure allows oxygen to dissolve more effectively into the blood plasma, helping deliver oxygen deeper into damaged tissues where healing is needed most.
HBOT may benefit pets recovering from:
Surgery
Orthopedic injuries
Sports medicine injuries
Wounds and burns
Tissue trauma with compromised blood flow
Inflammation and swelling
Potential benefits of HBOT include:
Improved wound healing
Reduced inflammation and edema
Increased circulation and oxygen delivery
Enhanced infection-fighting support
Support for tissue recovery and regeneration
By improving oxygen delivery to injured tissues, HBOT can help accelerate healing and, in some cases, reduce the need for more invasive procedures.
Pet parents: If your pet is recovering from surgery or injury, ask whether HBOT may be beneficial for their treatment plan.
Veterinary professionals: We welcome referrals and collaborative case management.
