Great service with caring staff, and reasonable prices! Back in 2015 my Lab/Pit mix, Bane, was diagnosed with Hip Dysplasia. He started limping and having pain so we took him to our usual vets office, affordable, where we were referred by Dr. Brennan to see Dr. Mitchell. Dr. Mitchell was very caring and knowledgeable. We were debating on a few procedures, but the one were were most set on was called a Femoral Head Osteotmey(FHO). Which is more of a salvage surgery. The recovery time was short, and walking and using his hip was encouraged for a better recovery. We ended up going ahead with the surgery, as we thought it would be the best choice since Bane is such an active pup. After the surgery was over and Bane was more awake, we were able to come see him. He had about a 5 inch incision on his hip with stitches and staples. You figure he'd be in pain and tired, but our little trooper was eager to get up and play lol. We had to leave him overnight, but the next morning we were able to bring him home. The first few days we had to have him take it easy, but after he was up and walking on the road to recovery. It's been about two years since his surgery, and Bane is better than ever! He acts like he never had surgery at all! Thanks to Dr. Mitchell, Bane gets to live a healthy, and happy active life. Since then, we've been hiking, swimming, taking long walks, and living life to to fullest with him. Thank you so much Dr. Mitchell!Read Less
