Neuro Surgery
Neurosurgery involves surgery of the central nervous system (brain and spine) and peripheral nervous system (peripheral nerves and target organs). Vetcision routinely performs laminectomies to treat paralyzed dogs with ruptured discs in the neck and back. We also treat cauda equina back problems, laryngeal paralysis, and perform diagnostic nerve biopsies.
