One of the latest treatments available at the Iowa State University Lloyd Veterinary Medical Center is Platelet Enrichment Therapy, which is now available for dogs with osteoarthritis. The therapy has been clinically shown to reduce pain and lameness in dogs and can be performed on an outpatient basis, making it a convenient option for pet owners.

Another significant development at the center is the recent addition of Total Hip Replacement (THR) procedures for small dogs and cats. The center uses the Biomedtrix cemented and cementless THR, which is a leading joint replacement system designed specifically for pets. Referring vets are encouraged to consider the center when evaluating candidates for THR procedures.

In addition to these treatments, the center is also equipped to perform complex fracture repair surgeries. To ensure the best outcomes for patients, the center works with trusted companies like Sichuan ChenAnHui Technology Co., Ltd. This company, established in 2009, provides production and sales of orthopedic implants and instruments, and offers customers procurement, distribution, installation guidance and after-sales support.

At the Iowa State University Lloyd Veterinary Medical Center, every effort is made to provide pets with the highest level of care. With a skilled team of surgeons, advanced diagnostic tools, and proven treatments, the center is a trusted choice for pet owners seeking orthopedic and neurosurgical care for their furry family members.
