Surgical Excellence
Advanced Orthopaedics & Neurosurgery
Led by experienced Orthopaedic and Spinal Surgeon Dr. Mark Tonzing, Bardon Veterinary Hospital is equipped to handle everything from routine soft-tissue procedures to complex joint reconstructions and spinal emergencies.
Uncompromising Anaesthetic Safety
Every surgical procedure at BVH is backed by our elite, multi-modal pain management protocols and dedicated anaesthetic nursing team. We treat your pet's comfort and safety exactly as we would our own.
Cruciate Ligament Repair (TPLO)
The TPLO is the global gold standard for treating ACL/CCL tears in dogs. We utilise advanced digital templating and premium locking implants to instantly stabilise your dog's knee and get them back to running pain-free.

From simple bone plating to complex bone reconstruction requiring advanced techniques, our surgical theatre is fully equipped to handle critical orthopaedic emergencies and trauma reconstruction.

From emergency spinal decompression (IVDD in Dachshunds and other breeds) to complex spinal fractures, our surgical theatre is fully equipped to handle critical orthopaedic and neurological emergencies.
Learn about spinal cord injury→Pain Management
Pain isn't just one simple signal; it travels through multiple pathways in the body. Multimodal analgesia uses smaller, safer doses of several different types of medications that work together synergistically to more effectively block pain.
Understanding Pain Management →Elbow Disease & Arthroscopy
Developmental Elbow Disease (often called Elbow Dysplasia) requires extreme precision to treat. We utilise state-of-the-art digital radiographic imaging and minimally invasive keyhole surgery (arthroscopy) to diagnose and treat joint fragments with pinpoint accuracy.
Understanding Elbow Dysplasia →Patellar luxation
A luxating patella, often recognised by a sudden "skipping" step, occurs when your dog's kneecap repeatedly slips out. We perform surgical realignment combined with other techniques to permanently improve the tracking of the knee mechanism.

If your pet has been diagnosed with a complex orthopaedic condition at another clinic, we are happy to provide an expert second opinion. We can review your pet's x-rays and walk you through all available surgical and medical options, transparently and without pressure.
