| - We had quite an adventure with our kitty just after Christmas. The kitty had an obvious hip or leg injury. In the process of getting xrays to determine the extent of the hip injury, it was found that he had swallowed a penny. We were referred to Dove Valley to see Dr. K because he was qualified to both remove the penny and perform the recommended hip surgery. Dr. K removed the penny, but was not comfortable doing the hip surgery, as he felt the x-rays were unclear. So, we took the cat home to recover from the stomach surgery. When we returned to have the stitches out, hip x-rays were taken again, and this time the injury (a fracture near/on the growth plate) was very clear. Dr. K stated that because he could have done both procedures at once, but made us wait, he would discount the hip surgery so that we would pay as though they had happened at once. We certainly appreciated that!! He performed the hip surgery a few days later, and since then our little kitty is 100% back to normal. We have been very happy with the concern shown by the office, the care they took of our kitty, and the result of both surgeries. We are grateful for Dr. K's skills to help our kitty recover, and would recommend his services to other pet owners.
