Re: [RC] Broken Splint Bone - Barbara McCraryI've been told Tom Yarborough is "as good as it gets." Barbara McCrary ----- Original Message ----- From: "Ridecamp Guest" <guest-owner@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: <ridecamp@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Monday, July 19, 2004 4:14 PM Subject: [RC] Broken Splint Bone Please Reply to: Karen Nelson knelson@xxxxxxxxxx or ridecamp@xxxxxxxxxxxxx ========================================== If you have a reasonably competant vet and a clinic where you can leave the horse for the first 4-5 days to be sure there are no problems, this is a common surgery. I don't know where you are, but there is a clinic in Galt, Calif, South of Sacramento that has a surgery facility. The best surgeon around is a "floater" to the clinics, Tom Yarborough. A really good vet, and a great personality. He did a splint surgery on my mare, and she healed just fine. No infection, etc. The longer you let this fester and cause more problems against tendons and ligaments, the more problems you will have down the road, IMO. Good Luck.
