Acupuncture can benefit all life stages (juvenile, adult and senior) and a variety of conditions. Dr Morris and Dr Joyce are amazing doctors! All the staff I've met so far are fantastic! They were so quick to get us an appointment! I waited for 6 weeks to get a surgical consult at another office when 2 regular vets wouldn't touch my dog's knee. Luckily, I heard about Plateau and they fit us in right away!
Both doctors do a great job of taking their time and explaining the situation and their assessment. My dogs have had more than their fair share of vet visits over the past few years and Plateau is the best care we've EVER received!

This new surgical technique is called the Modified Maquet Procedure or MMP.
When an MMP is done to modify the joint mechanics there is less movement of tissues during the surgery, a shorter surgery (and anesthesia) time, and we expect these patients to use the leg very soon after surgery.
Although total healing time is 8 weeks, graduated leash walks are allowed beginning the day after surgery.
Cruciate disease is when a dog (and sometimes a cat) ruptures or tears the anterior cruciate ligament (sometimes called the cranial cruciate ligament) which is located in the knee (stifle) joint.

Laser Therapy is an FDA-cleared modality that reduces inflammation and that results in pain reduction by accelerating the body's natural healing process through photo-bio-modulation and is effective in treating chronic conditions, acute conditions, and post- surgical pain and inflammation.
Laser therapy treatment is safe, painless and fast.
Treatments to deeper tissues are administered in 5 to 10 minutes.
Typically, even chronic patients exhibit improvement after 3 to 5 treatment sessions.
Laser therapy utilizes the body's own healing powers by stimulating cellular activity.

One of the most common orthopedic conditions in dogs is a rupture of the cranial cruciate ligament.
This ligament attaches the femur to the tibia inside the knee joint and acts as a stabilizing structure that prevents abnormal movement in the joint while allowing full range of motion.
When the cruciate ligament is compromised by a partial or complete tear, the joint becomes unstable resulting in inflammation, swelling and pain.
This instability can compromise the meniscus resulting in fraying or tearing of this intra-articular "cushion".
