Ripley’s Remarkable Recovery: Walking Comfortably Just 24 Hours After Surgery
Ripley, a 5-year-old rescue, struggled with major discomfort in both of her back legs, making simple movements like sitting and squatting painful. After a thorough examination, Dr. Dhaliwal diagnosed her with bilateral ACL tears—an injury that affects mobility in both legs, making it difficult for pets to limp.
Dr. Dhaliwal took the time to educate Ripley’s owner on the diagnosis and treatment options. He recommended Tibial Plateau Leveling Osteotomy (TPLO) surgery to restore Ripley’s mobility and eliminate her pain. The surgery was performed in June 2019, with detailed radiographic imaging to explain the procedure and post-operative results.
Following surgery, Ripley’s pain was expertly managed, and she was walking just 24 hours later!

A comprehensive recovery packet provided clear guidance on post-operative care, including ice/heat therapy, range of motion exercises, and progress milestones. Thanks to Dr. Dhaliwal’s expertise, Ripley made a full recovery and continues to thrive two years later, pain-free.
Ripley’s owner Shanea Estes shares, “We are both incredibly grateful for Dr. Dhaliwal’s skill and support in getting her back to top health.”
Thank you so much, Dr. Dhaliwal!
