Mountain View Animal Hospital is proud to host Dr. Dean Morgn, Board Certified Orthopedic Surgeon (Large Animal), to bring his advanced veterinary surgical services to our hospital. Dr. Morgan grew up in rural Montana and went to veterinary school in Missouri. Upon graduation, he completed an internship at Pioneer Equine in Oakdale, California. After working a number of years in Colorado, he completed a surgical residency in advanced orthopedic and soft tissue surgeries at Iowa State, before moving to the Reno area.
Initially, he focused many of his years in the equine (horse) field but over time found a new passion for working with small animals.
Mountain View Animal Hospital and Holistic Pet Care is excited to have such a skilled surgeon on their team. Dr. Morgan is able to perform anterior cruciate repairs (ACL tears) through tibial-plateau-leveling osteotomies (TPLO’s), tightrope repairs, and other orthopedic surgeries such as luxating patella and fracture repairs. When he isn’t in the clinic, he spends his spare time coaching his boy's basketball teams and loves participating in all outdoor activities.
