Our friends' dog just had surgery for a torn ACL. They went to Pets on Broadway. We go there too.

Default torn ACL
Personally, I will never recommend the VRCC. We took our dog there recently for leg surgery and they almost killed him with anesthesia. He had surgery with them in the past, but they chose to use different drugs this time and he had a bad reaction either to the wrong drugs or too much of them. It took weeks to nurse him back to health. Oh, and they charged us around $2000 for the experience.

They also ended up not fixing his leg.
