Minor Orthopaedic Work
Veterinary Orthopaedic Surgery in Mansfield, Notts
Mobility matters — especially when your pet is in pain. At Forest Veterinary Clinic, we provide compassionate, high-quality orthopaedic surgery in Mansfield for pets facing injuries or limb issues.
Expert Care for Pets Needing Limb Support, Fracture Repair, or Amputation
Our focus is on minor orthopaedic procedures, such as simple fracture repairs by intramedullary pin placement or bone plating, designed to restore comfort, improve movement, and give your pet a better quality of life.

What Is Minor Orthopaedic Surgery?
Minor orthopaedic work includes surgical interventions that address skeletal injuries or conditions but don’t require advanced referral-level intervention. At Forest Veterinary Clinic, we perform:
- Intramedullary pin placement, bone plates and other surgical options for fracture fixation
- Limb amputations, when necessary to relieve pain or remove damaged tissue
- Femoral head and neck excision for hip fractures or permanent dislocation
These procedures are often recommended for pets with trauma-related injuries, non-healing fractures, or conditions affecting their limbs.
When Does Your Pet Need Orthopaedic Care?
If your pet is showing signs of lameness, reluctance to walk, visible injury, or persistent discomfort, it’s time to seek an evaluation. Early intervention can prevent further damage and reduce long-term pain. Our team will conduct a thorough exam and walk you through the best treatment options available.
