🌈 Pride Day at DCES 🐾

Yesterday, our team came together in celebration of Pride Month and the values we’re proud to carry throughout the year: kindness, respect, inclusion, and belonging.

At DCES, we're committed to creating a hospital community where our team members, clients, and families feel welcomed, supported, and free to be themselves. That commitment matters every day, in the way we care for our patients, support one another, and show up for the people who walk through our doors.

Thank you to everyone who participated in Pride Day and helped make the moment special.

Happy Pride Month from all of us at DCES! ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜

Meet Ryland. ❤️🐾

One look at that face and you can probably tell who's running the show! Today, she's busy stealing hearts, collecting cuddles, and making friends wherever she goes.

It's hard to believe this little pup has already overcome so much. At just 5 weeks old, Ryland faced pneumonia, multiple wounds, a severe infection, and ultimately the loss of one of her legs.

Today, she's doing wonderfully and continues to prove that resilience comes in all sizes.

We'd say she's pretty inspiring... but Ryland would probably prefer to be called adorable. ❤️

Some bonds change your life quietly.

Happy National Dog Mom’s Day to the women who have loved their dogs through puppy stages, gray faces, hard days, healing days, and everything in between.

How lucky we are to share our lives with them. 🤍

Not your typical patient check-in.

The Mandalorian stopped by DCES today with Grogu… and we’re still trying to figure out, is he a dog or a cat?

Either way, we’re ready for anything around here.

May the Fourth be with you! 💫

Happy CSR Week! 💛

In honor of Veterinary Receptionist Week, this week at DCES is all about our CSRs.

They are the calm in high-pressure moments, the steady voice on the other end of the line, and the people helping guide each day forward.

This role isn’t easy, and it doesn’t go unnoticed.

This week, we celebrate them. 🐾

What you’re seeing here is focus, precision, and compassionate care in real time.

When asked what drives him, David put it simply:

“At the end of the day, this work is about showing up for animals when they need it most. That responsibility means everything to me.”

This is the standard our team carries.
Every patient. Every time. 🐾

Behind every patient we care for is a team working together.

Asking questions.
Sharing ideas.
Making sure nothing is missed.

Because your pet deserves more than one perspective. They deserve a team.

Dr. Gillem and Dr. Klippen in action.

This is what care looks like at DCES.
