Any Idea on cost of surgery for a slab fracture?

I know this question has so many variables but what would a garden variety surgery cost ~ + -. I’m mostly just frustrated with what life has dealt me recently and now this. I am having the horse re x-rayed in the morning and hopefully get a better idea of this issue. But theres no doubt its fractured its just trying to find a fix for him. Any info good or bad I’d love to hear. TIA

Check the vet school at UF. The experts are there and the costs less expensive

Thank you I will be!

I know lots of good work at that vet school. I’ve always used UGA in my state. The professors are great surgeons
omg you’ve donated bone marrow for your brother and you’re a leo as well?

Yes!! its been a whirlwind the last 2 months! And I tore my Achilles tendon while at too!! My life has not been boring ! But the positive is my brother seems to be doing as expected with the transplant so all else is minor. The horse is now gotta get fixed LOL

I just got an estimate for this from Colorado State University as I have a gelding who needs the surgery. My estimate was $12,000 - $14,000.

The estimate I got last week was 12,000 - 14,000.

12k - 14k

Colorado State University gave me a 12-14k estimate.
