5.0 out of 5 stars Great basic Orthopedic book for veterinary practice, November 4, 2001

This review is from: Small Animal Orthopedics, 1e (Hardcover)

This test is very good as approaching the basic approaches to K-9 bane pronlems. We perform 3-5 fracture repairs, Cruciate ruputes, luxating patellas, TPO, back surgeries, ect. per WEEK. New graduates as well as senior veterinarians use this test on a regular basis to refresh there skills / knowledge. Nothing new but well presented old knowledge of veterinary orthopedics. A must for veterinary practice not for laymen. If you are not a veterinarian or well versed in veterinary terms, then this is not the book for you.
