“This website is dedicated to Barclay Slocum and his important contributions to Veterinary Surgery.

 

The Darthroplasty represents his successful adaptation of the Human Shelf Operation concept to Canines.

 

I personally corroborate the observations he wrote about the results of this technique after observing them myself in more than 300 cases.”
