I highly recommend Dr. Crouch and his team! We took our 7 year old Labrador Retriever there when we noticed her limping and favoring her right leg. After her initial examination he explained she needed TPLO surgery and proceeded to explain what the surgery would involve and what her recovery would look like. Today she was 6 weeks post-op and her x-rays showed she is ready for the rehabilitation stage of her recovery. And again everything was thoroughly explained, and all our questions were answered.
If your animal needs surgery this is the place to go!

Couldn’t have had a better experience with WCVS and Dr. Crouch. He performed two TPLO surgeries on my boy Gumbo and both experiences were amazing. He educated us on everything we needed to know and kept us up to date while my dog was in his care. His team was always available to answer questions during his recovery and to support us in any way possible. 10/10!
You want to use Dr Crouch. My son (dog) tore his CCL and needed knee surgery. I spent a significant amount of time and energy reviewing surgeons before finding Dr Crouch. He’s by far the best. There are many vets that charge twice what he charges and have 1/10 of the experience. He also takes all precautions to avoid infection. I mean all. Far more than any one else. My son eventually made a full recovery. I don’t know about all procedures but there is nobody better for TPLO surgeries. Grateful for his services and highly recommend him to everyone.
