🐾 Please join us in welcoming our newest veterinarian to The Amherst Veterinary Hospital! 🐾

We’re excited to welcome Dr. Suzanne LeBlanc to the AVH team! ❤️

Originally from Southern Ontario, Dr. LeBlanc graduated from the Ontario Veterinary College in 1994 and has since enjoyed a career in both rural veterinary practice and small animal clinics in southern Manitoba. A farm kid at heart who grew up in the city, she now calls West Colchester home, where she lives with her three dogs, Poppy, Petunia and Birch. 🐶

Her three children are off making their own way in Manitoba and Saskatchewan, while she keeps busy enjoying the outdoors in all kinds of weather, quilting, tennis and pickleball.

Dr. LeBlanc has a special interest in behaviour, dermatology, senior pet care and ophthalmology. We’re thrilled to have her experience and knowledge joining our team!

Please help us give her a warm welcome to Amherst Vet Hospital! We’re so happy to have you here! 🐾❤️

🐾 It's Drewww's Day ❤️

Last week was Staff Appreciation Week at AVH, and the humans had a pretty good time celebrating!

We used to celebrate our techs, vets and CSRs separately, but now we bring everyone together for one big week of appreciation. And this year, there were lots of goodies to go around! 🥰

The week included breakfast, massages, lunch made by Eric, dirty sodas and an apple bar! 🥤🍎 There was definitely no shortage of reasons to take a little break and enjoy some time together.

I spent the week keeping an eye on things, accepting my usual pets and scratches, and making sure everyone was behaving themselves. You know, the important stuff. 😸

In all seriousness, we have a pretty wonderful team here, and it was nice to see everyone get a little extra love for all the hard work they do every day. They take good care of their patients, their clients and, of course, ME!

Thanks for everything you do, AVH humans. You deserve it! ❤️🐾

Love,
Drew 🐱

🐾 Happy Drew’s Day 😸

The humans are getting spoiled this week with breakfast, massages, lunch, dirty sodas and more! Must be nice to be a human around here! 😂

I’ll just be over here doing what I do best: supervising, napping, and making sure everyone knows when I’m ready for some scratches. Someone has to keep things running! 😉

Happy Staff Appreciation Week to our amazing AVH team! You take such good care of everyone’s furry family members, and it’s nice to see you getting a little extra love, too. ❤️🐾

Now, back to my regularly scheduled napping. 😽

Behind every appointment, every emergency, and every wagging tail is a pretty incredible team 🐾 This week is all about THEM!

Happy Staff Appreciation Week to the people who make AVH what it is! 🫶
