Total Hip Replacement Surgery
Advanced Surgical Solutions for Canine Hip Dysplasia and Osteoarthritis
At HVS, we offer total hip replacement (THR) as a long-term solution for dogs with severe osteoarthritis secondary to hip dysplasia, avascular necrosis, chronic hip dislocations and/or severe fractures of the femoral head or neck. When conservative therapies no longer provide relief, THR can restore comfort, function, and mobility—dramatically improving a patient’s quality of life.
Performed by board-certified surgeon Dr. Matt Raske, one of the few veterinarians in New York City trained to perform this procedure, THR replaces the diseased hip joint with a prosthetic implant. Each case begins with careful patient selection and a thorough preoperative consultation to ensure THR is the right treatment path.
Why Choose THR?
- Restore normal joint function
- Long-term pain relief
- Provide excellent quality of life
- High success rate
