Valley Veterinary Surgery

Valley Veterinary Surgery is a well established referral facility serving the Chicagoland area including St.Charles, Geneva and Naperville with only the highest standards of medical care available for your pet.

With over 20 years of clinical arthroscopic experience, Dr. Robert Cook has limited his practice to minimally invasive surgical techniques including arthroscopy assisted CCL/(ACL) repairs in dogs using the laparoscopy and endoscopy. These procedures ensure the quickest recoveries and most accurate treatment plans for your pet. The most common orthopedic issue presented to Dr. Cook is lameness or limping usually involving the stifle or knee joint. If it is determined to be a CCS/ACL injury, DR. Cook repairs the damaged ligament using the Arthrex Tightrope system. This system has been used by Dr. Cook successfully in dogs of all sizes. Other orthopedic problems treated through arthroscopy are OCD (Osteochondritis Dissecans) of the shoulder or FMA (Fragmented Medial Coronoid) of the elbow.

We are confident in our ability and our goal is to return your pet to their normal level of function as fast as possible by utilizing the least invasive form of surgery available, arthroscopy. Your pet will have less pain overall due to smaller incisions, less tissue trauma, better surgical visualization due to magnification, decreased risk of infection as well as the ability to go home the same day as the surgery.

We would be more than happy to discuss with you, your pet's unique condition at a consultation.

At that time, we ask that you bring or have records and radiographs faxed to our facility at (630) 208-7387, or sent to our email at valleyveterinarysurgery@gmail.com so we are able to fully evaluate your pet with their entire medical history. We look forward to meeting both, you and your pet, and being part of your pets' health care team.
