Professional FHO Surgery for Pets in Grand Prairie, TX

At Gully Animal Hospital of Grand Prairie, we specialize in Femoral Head Ostectomy (FHO) surgery, a procedure designed to alleviate pain and restore mobility in pets with hip joint issues. This surgical technique is particularly beneficial for dogs and cats suffering from hip dysplasia, osteoarthritis, or severe fractures of the femoral head. Our experienced veterinary team is committed to providing the highest quality of care to help your pet recover and thrive.

FHO surgery involves the removal of the femoral head, which helps to eliminate pain caused by joint issues. After the procedure, the body forms a "false" joint using surrounding muscles and soft tissues, allowing for improved mobility and reduced discomfort. Our veterinary staff will conduct thorough examinations and diagnostic imaging to determine if FHO is the best option for your pet’s specific condition.

Our approach to FHO surgery focuses on both surgical precision and post-operative recovery. We utilize the latest surgical techniques and anesthesia protocols to ensure your pet’s safety and comfort during the procedure. After surgery, we provide detailed post-operative care instructions, including rehabilitation exercises and pain management strategies, to help facilitate a smooth recovery process.

Our clinic is dedicated to providing compassionate care and expert surgical solutions, helping your furry friend regain their active lifestyle.
