The Orthopedic Surgery Service at the MSU Veterinary Medical Center is made up of world-renowned surgeons who employ the best treatments and technologies to serve our patients through our trauma, revision and joint replacement centers. As the only academic institution in the United States that offers comprehensive total joint replacement for all major joints — hip, elbow, knee, and ankle — we provide the highest quality of service and care while closely collaborating with our Emergency, Anesthesia, Diagnostic Imaging, and Rehabilitation Services.
The MSU College of Veterinary Medicine is one of the few places in the country that has been designated a Fellowship Training Center for minimally invasive surgery in small animal orthopedics by the American College of Veterinary Surgeons.
“For the past 50 years, the MSU Veterinary Medical Center has been at the forefront of Orthopedic Surgery worldwide, building upon Wade O. Brinker’s early vision and leadership. Excellence, creativity, innovative thinking, and dedication have been ingrained within our culture ever since. “
