About Us.
Ridgewood Orthopaedic Services is a professional, friendly, efficient and independent mobile veterinary surgical service providing for a range of clinics.
Nick has been a vet for 24 years and has spent the last 10 years as a surgeon in referral hospitals. He gained the RCVS Certificate in Small Animal Surgery in 2007 and became an Advanced Practitioner in 2015. He has performed thousands of surgical procedures including a wide range of complex cases.
We can treat most orthopaedic and many soft tissue conditions in a primary care setting. Our experience in first opinion practices and referral centres provides a unique understanding of the challenges facing clinics and clients. This is even more important given the difficult economic issues we currently face.
What We Do
Orthopaedics
As orthopaedic vets, we handle musculoskeletal system conditions (bones, joints, muscles, tendons, ligaments). We treat most conditions, including cruciate ligament disease, patella luxation, and fractures. Our service has the necessary surgical instruments, power tools, and implants.
We maintain sterility using disposable surgical packs, gowns, gloves, and patient preparation products. This helps reduce the risk of postoperative complications such as infection.
Soft Tissue
These procedures involve various parts of the body not involved in locomotion. the common procedures are listed below.
