🇺🇸 Fourth of July is Almost Here! 🎆

As we gear up to celebrate Independence Day, don’t forget about our furry family members! Many pets get anxious or frightened by fireworks and loud noises.

🐾 If your pet is sensitive to loud sounds, now is the time to call us to discuss calming medications or other options to help them stay safe and comfortable during the holiday.

📛 Also, be sure to check that your pet’s ID tags are up to date and securely attached to their collar. If they panic and run, proper identification can help bring them home quickly.

Give us a call this week to get your pet ready for a safe and stress-free holiday! ❤️🐶🐱

The Brodhead Veterinary Medical Center family is growing again! We are ecstatic to announce the arrival of two new large animal doctors in June. Drs. Gathje and Crews will be riding along with our large animal doctors throughout the summer. We look forward to everyone meeting them and hope you will all issue them a warm welcome. Below are their bios to help you get to know them before they start.

Dr. Alyssa Gathje grew up in Lanesboro, MN raising sheep and chickens. She attended UW-River Falls to earn degrees in Dairy and Meat Animal Science and then the University of Minnesota-College of Veterinary Medicine to become a Doctor of Veterinary Medicine.

Dr. Gathje moved to Blanchardville, WI with her fiancé Dylan and lab mix Sadie. They look forward to getting married in September. In her free time, Dr. Gathje enjoys spending time with her friends and family and getting outside as much as possible. Kayaking and 4-wheeler rides are two of her favorite activities and she hopes to refine her green thumb by starting a garden this summer. Baking is also a hobby that Dr. Gathje enjoys and she is working on perfecting her cheesecake recipe.

Dr. Gathje’s veterinary interests include bovine reproduction, sheep and goat care and production and large animal preventive medicine. She looks forward to joining the Brodhead-Monroe team and meeting all their clients. Dr. Gathje also looks forward to becoming involved with local 4-H and FFA groups to help give back to organizations that helped foster her interest in livestock and veterinary medicine.

A recent graduate of Iowa State University College of Veterinary Medicine, Dr. Savanah Crews is excited to begin her career in large animal medicine with the Brodhead VMC team. Originally from Roscoe Illinois, she is grateful for the opportunity to return to the area and serve the community that helped shape her.

Dr. Crews developed a deep appreciation for agriculture during her undergraduate studies at the University of Wisconsin-Platteville, where she became immersed in the farming community. That experience sparked a lasting passion for rural veterinary medicine and strengthened her commitment to supporting producers and their livestock through practical, relationship-focused care.

Outside of veterinary medicine, Dr. Crews enjoys spending time outdoors with her 3 year old Australian Shepherd, hiking, kayaking, trail riding, reading, and connecting with family and friends. She’s looking forward to putting down roots in the community and growing both personally and professionally.

After 24 incredible years of love, care, and unwavering dedication, we are saying a heartfelt farewell and a big thank you to Wanda, who is retiring May 22nd from her role caring for our boarding animals. For more than two decades, Wanda has been a steady, compassionate presence-tending to every animal as if they were her own. Her patience, kindness, and attention to every paw, tail, and whisker will be deeply missed by our team, our clients, and most all, the animals whose lives she touched every single day.

Whether it was a nervous puppy on their first stay or a senior cat needing extra love, Wanda gave every animal comfort and care. Her legacy is one of trust, heart, and extraordinary service.

Please join us in wishing Wanda a joyful and relaxing retirement-you've earned every moment, and then some!

With gratitude and love,
Everyone at Brodhead Veterinary Medical Center
