 Dr. Kerpsack - I wanted to drop you a note to say Thank You for restoring Vinny's quality of life. Vinny is my 6 year old wirehaired Dachshund. After being diagnosed with IVDD he was experiencing classic symptoms of this disorder and was placed on crate rest for 4 weeks in an attempt to avoid surgery. Two weeks into his crate rest he began losing motor function in his lower extremeties. I took him in on a Saturday night and they had him scheduled for spinal surgery with you the next morning. I visited Vinny each day during his 3 day hospitalization and noticed immediate improvement. I continued his crate rest for 4 more weeks at home and he is now functioning as well as he was before his diagnosis. Again, my family and I cannot thank you enough for giving Vinny back to us and letting him enjoy a pain free
life once again. Dave B

Dear Dr. Kerpsack - Milo is feeling great. He had a haircut today and is enjoying his recovery. He's been eating a lot and we started walking him the day after his confinement (28 days!). He really was amazingly well behaved for the 28, but over joyed to be let out . You have the most amazing hands! Thank you for fixing Milo. Lulo Lopez and Joe Dugan.

Dear Dr. Kerpsack,
We wanted to thank you again for giving Mini a quality life for many years. You performed successful knee surgery for Mini in Sept 2006 and she passed on Feb 23, 2011. She was very well and very strong until she died suddenly in the early morning hours last Wednesday. She was 11 years and 2 months old. We are very thankful for the quality of life she had after her operation and for the care your staff provided. If you recall, we drove from Wichita, Kansas back to Austin to have her surgery because we were so impressed with your practice and facility. We will continue to recommend any pets we know to be in need of your services to your practice.
Sincerely, Cheryl, Rey, Zeny and Philip C. |

Caring for those who mean the most to us is a task many of us take on gladly - especially if that "being" has no voice. When Mabel needed surgery I worried very much about the anesthesia, who it is that would care for her while she was in overnight recovery and many other fears that accompany caring for a loved one. Dr. Kerpsack and his staff made this event as positive as possible and, most importantly, got my bulldog back to me in a condition that exceeded my lofty expectations. If your best friend could talk I'm sure he or she would offer thanks knowing that they were cared for by those at CTVSH. Thanks - Allen B |

Our animal rescue group pulled “Grant” from the city’s shelter after he was surrendered by his owners. Grant’s owners gave him up because they did not want to pay for diagnostics to determine why he was hunchbacked and constantly howling in pain. “We already spent $4K to import him here from Russia.”
Taking in this special needs dog as a foster, I took him directly to CTVSH. There, we learned Grant had a severe spinal infection. He was immediately placed on medication in an effort to avoid surgery. With much comfort & assurance, the absolutely amazing staff cared for Grant as though he was their own.
Ultimately, Grant did require the spinal surgery. As a result of a successful entrapped nerve root repair operation, a more than year of checkups & x-rays, and daily medication, Grant’s infection has completely cleared. I ended up adopting this special boy – after the time and attention spent to bring him to good, I just couldn’t imagine him being anyplace else. I can say with great confidence that CTVSH provides the best care, timely updates, and kind consideration to both owners and dogs.
I trust CTVSH completely and strongly believe in their ability to successfully treat even the most difficult cases – like my Grant Man. “Grant” and I are both grateful to Dr. Stephanie Beardsley and her wonderful staff for saving his life! With much respect and appreciation, Courtney & Grant

Dear Dr. Kerpsack and Staff,
Last May I brought my wonderful nine-year-old border collie, Jas, into your office with a severed ACL. She had been a very active dog, loved playing in agility, and running in the park. I was heart-sick that those times were now in the past. If only she could once again walk on all four legs to the park I would have been delighted. You performed your TPLO procedure on Jas and her gradual return to an active life was truly astounding. Not only were we able to walk to the park together again, but she became able to run and play with our other border collie, Dixie. On November 28 we once again entered an agility show since she obviously wanted to participate. To my amazement, she successfully completed two runs which finished her requirements for championship certification in NADAC. She did it in her typical style with first place ribbons. This is a dream that I had decided was not to be. But thanks to your surgery and Jas’s spirit and skill, this goal was realized. She is now MACH and NACH Jasmine. Thank you for giving Jas full use of her leg.
Sincerely,
William C.
