Surgical Care Designed for Comfort and Confidence

Orthopedic problems can limit your pet’s ability to move, jump, and play—but they don’t have to. With over 25 years of experience and more than 1,000 successful ACL surgeries performed, Dr. Chase Kohne and the Ridgeline team combine advanced techniques with a gentle touch to ensure every patient receives personalized care from start to finish.

We specialize in a wide range of orthopedic procedures, including:

  • Knee (Cruciate Ligament / ACL) Surgery – We offer several repair options, including CBLO, Swivelock repair, and extracapsular repair, tailored to your pet’s size, lifestyle, and activity level.
  • Fracture Repair – From simple breaks to complex injuries, we restore proper alignment and strength to help bones heal straight and strong.
  • Hip Surgeries (FHO) – For pets suffering from painful or degenerative hip conditions, we perform femoral head ostectomy (FHO) to relieve pain and improve mobility.
  • Other Orthopedic Concerns – Including patellar luxation, elbow conditions, and tendon injuries.

Care at Every Step of the Journey

Orthopedic surgery isn’t just about fixing the problem—it’s about supporting your pet through the entire recovery process. We provide:

  • Gentle, detailed exams and clear communication
  • Safe, customized anesthesia protocols
  • Comfort-focused pain management
  • Post-surgical rehab guidance and follow-up care

Our team will walk you through each step so you feel informed and confident in your pet’s treatment plan.
