Please join us in welcoming Dr. Easley to CVRC's Internal Medicine team! 🩺🐾

Dr. Easley earned her DVM from North Carolina State University and went on to complete a medicine-focused rotating internship and residency in Small Animal Internal Medicine. She later pursued additional specialized training in nephrology and urology before bringing her knowledge and experience to the Charleston area. Her special interests include kidney and urinary diseases, as well as infectious diseases.

Outside of the hospital, Dr. Easley enjoys spending time outdoors, staying active, and keeping up with her two young children. Fun fact: Her husband is also a veterinary specialist! He's a veterinary radiologist, and the two actually met during residency at NC State.

We're so excited to have Dr. Easley as part of the CVRC family. Help us give her a warm welcome! ❤️

🐱🖤 Happy National Cat Day! Meet Camino! 🖤🐾

This October 29th, we're celebrating the cats who make our lives a little brighter, and today we'd like to introduce you to one very special feline friend: Camino!

At just 6 years old, Camino has already been on quite a journey with our Internal Medicine and Neurology teams. He has faced some complex medical challenges, including ongoing health concerns and changes in his mobility, requiring continued care, monitoring, and plenty of dedication from his veterinary team and loving family.

Through it all, Camino's story reminds us how much of a difference a devoted caregiver can make. His family has worked closely with our team to help support his needs, and as our Internal Medicine team shared, Camino's *silly personality* is part of what makes him so special! ❤️

We're so happy to be part of Camino's care journey and are celebrating him, his wonderful family, and all the feline friends who bring so much love and personality into our lives. Happy National Cat Day, Camino! 🐾🐈‍⬛

⚠️ Community Safety Reminder 🐾

We want to make our community aware of a scam targeting people who post online about lost pets. Scammers may contact pet owners while pretending to represent an animal hospital and demand immediate payment, sometimes claiming the pet will be euthanized if payment is not made.

If you receive a call like this, take a moment to verify the information directly with the hospital using its official phone number before providing payment or personal information.

We know how stressful it can be when a pet goes missing, and we hope this reminder helps keep our community informed and safe. Please share to help spread the word! ❤️ 🐶 🐱

Meet Sarah Jansen Rogers!

Sarah Jansen Rogers is an ER aide and shift lead who has been part of the CVRC team for nearly 10 years, bringing more than 20 years of experience working with veterinary patients to her role. She holds a BFA in Dance Choreography and Performance—a background that might seem unexpected in veterinary medicine, but one she puts to good use every day!

Her agility, body awareness, and ability to adapt help her meet animals where they are, build trust, and ease their nerves during their hospital stay.

Sarah understands that the ER can be a scary and overwhelming place, and she strives to make every patient feel as safe, comfortable, and calm as possible through compassion, patience, and a little creativity.

Outside of work, Sarah is the proud mom of two amazing teenagers. She continues to dance regularly and enjoys daily walks, crafting, and always trying something new. She also loves foraging and exploring ways to incorporate local flora and fauna into cooking and other creative projects.

Whether she’s caring for patients, creating something by hand, or exploring the natural world, Sarah brings curiosity, creativity, and a love of learning to everything she does!

Meet Mae R!

Mae was born and raised in Summerville, South Carolina, and has spent his career exploring different areas of veterinary medicine. He’s worked in general practice, shelter medicine, animal control, and specialty medicine, and now brings all of that experience to the fast-paced world of emergency medicine.

Before joining CVRC full-time, Mae picked up relief shifts with the team and quickly realized how much he loved being there. Between the people, the atmosphere, and getting to work alongside others who share his love for animals, it just felt like the right place to call home!
Mae knows how scary and overwhelming it can be to have a sick or injured pet, especially in an emergency. He understands how much trust it takes to put your pet in someone else’s hands, and he takes that responsibility to heart. He treats every patient like one of his own, making sure they get the same love, patience, and care he would want for his own pets.
Outside of work, Mae is a huge pug lover and a big fan of all things zombie-related. He has a special place in his heart for those wrinkly little faces, and when it comes to zombie movies and shows, he’s always up for a good one!

Meet Brittany B!

Brittany’s passion for animals and even the smallest of creatures began in childhood. Growing up, she loved helping her dad care for the family pets and had the opportunity to be around a variety of animals, including lizards, fish, turtles, rabbits, ferrets, and snakes. Even playing with caterpillars during recess reflected Brittany’s deep connection to nature.

Brittany began her veterinary career as a kennel technician before getting the opportunity to gain hands-on clinical experience in animal medicine. This opened up a whole new world of care and compassion, inspiring her to become a voice for the voiceless. Over the past 11 years, Brittany has dedicated herself to veterinary medicine, pursuing continuing education and college coursework to grow as a veterinary technician. She loves being able to care for animals, especially during their most difficult moments, and wouldn’t trade it for the world! Outside of work, Brittany enjoys spending time in nature, reading, and learning new things.
