On the Spot Veterinary Surgery is a mobile veterinary team that travels to partnering veterinary facilities throughout Central Ohio. We provide elective orthopedic surgeries to our canine and feline friends including TPLO Surgery, Luxating Patella Corrections, Lateral Suture Corrections, Joint Explore Surgery, Femoral Head Ostectomy and various soft tissue surgeries. The student will have the opportunity to assist with patient consultations, assist during the surgical procedures as well as performing post-op recheck appointments with the primary veterinarian. The goal is for the student to be immersed in a traveling veterinary surgery experience and learn how integrated our services are with general veterinary practices.
