Bush Veterinary Neurology Service Short Pump

Murphy and all of us at BVNS wish everyone a fun and safe Halloween!

Be extra mindful about keeping your doors closed and your pets leashed to avoid risk of escape. Additionally, keep your Halloween candy out of reach of your furry friends and family (unless it's comprised of pet-safe foods, such as pumpkin, cheese, and dog/cat treats)!

Last week was 🎉Veterinary Technician Week🎉 and we wanted to showcase our incredible staff for all their effort, sacrifice, sweat, and tears that they put into their work each and every day.

A special shout out to our Licensed Veterinary Technicians in Leesburg: Karen, Stephanie, Denice, Megan, Mia, Selinda, and Alicia — You guys are amazing and work so hard to provide exceptional care for our many patients. Your knowledge and years of experience are indispensable, and you're all life-savers in both the metaphorical and literal sense.

And another shout out to our support staff: veterinary assistants Kelly, Katie, Emma, and Alyssa; and client service representatives Arlette and Taylor — You all have been so diligent, hard-working, and compassionate as you help our appointments and clinic run so smoothly.

None of what BVNS can do for our patients would be possible without each one of you! You are all appreciated so much every single week, and we are happy to spoil you just a little bit extra this week in particular. 🙂

It was a Loooooong day caring for the 5 dachshunds who had their initial or recheck appointments with us!

Not surprisingly, all of these pups were seen for a back-related issue. We wish all of these low-riders a speedy recovery!

When we first met Sully, he was lying on his side, completely unable to move or stand up on his own. He required spinal surgery urgently to give him the best chance at recovery.

We're happy to say that Sully strutted right back into our clinic for his post-op recheck exam! It's always rewarding to see our patients improve this much following treatment, which is no doubt a result of the effort and patience provided by families throughout their recovery.

We hope that Sully continues to improve, and we look forward to seeing an even bigger smile on his face at his next recheck!

Our staff has been working so hard recently, taking on extra emergency cases and staying late to ensure that our patients receive proper and timely treatment.

It's important to indulge in a coffee break every now and then; Duke certainly thinks so, but only if we bring him back a Pup Cup!

Happy CSR Appreciation Week to our WONDERFUL Client Service Representatives, Arlette and Taylor!

You guys are so fundamental to the daily functioning of our clinic in so many ways, from greeting our clients and patients, to organizing paperwork, to putting out candy and snacks for everyone to enjoy—the number of ways you help our team is unlimited.

Thank you for all the hard work you do! We appreciate it on a daily basis, and we're so lucky to work with such incredible people. 😇

It’s CSR Appreciation Week!

From the first phone call to the moment a pet and their family walk through our doors, our Client Service Representatives are there to help, support, and keep things moving.

Thank you to all of the CSRs who bring compassion, patience, and a welcoming face to every interaction. We appreciate everything you do for our teams, our clients, and their pets!

We would like to thank Smokey and his family for such a lovely and generous gift!

Smokey found himself unable to use his back legs well and required surgery to hopefully get him walking again. Here he is posing in front of the beautiful wooden flag his dad gifted us right before being discharged!

We are always so appreciative of the ways in which our pet parents say Thank You. 💙 Smokey, we wish you the very best as you heal and recover at home!

💉 September 28th is World Rabies Day 💉

Rabies is one of the most well-known neurological diseases that can affect any mammal, including humans, dogs, and cats. Once symptoms start, rabies is nearly 100% fatal; luckily, this disease is also 100% preventable with vaccination.

If unvaccinated, your pet could be at risk if they come into contact with wildlife or other cats/dogs; even indoor pets can be at risk if they escape or if wildlife enters the house.

Some signs of rabies can include:
🔵 Fearfulness or loss of fear
🔵 Aggression or unpredictable behavior
🔵 Hypersalivation
🔵 Difficulty walking
🔵 Paralysis
🔵 ...And other unexplained neurological signs.

Help protect your pet and others by scheduling your pet's rabies vaccine with your primary veterinarian today!

This week we celebrate ! This week is set aside to recognize and celebrate these important team members who perform a vital role in the health and well-being of our pets. Additionally, it provides an opportunity to recognize technicians’ tremendous contributions at BVNS and in the veterinary community.

Here just a few facts you may not know about the veterinary technician role (it would be impossible to list them all!):

☑️ Veterinary technicians handle many of the same responsibilities that nurses and other professionals perform for physicians in human medicine. Like veterinarians, veterinary technicians are trained to work with several species of animals.

☑️ Veterinary technicians are trained to: take and record vital signs, obtain and record patient case histories, perform laboratory tests, take and develop radiographs (x-rays), draw blood, collect stool samples, sterilize equipment and exam rooms, administer medications, injections, IV fluids and anesthesia, assist in dental cleanings, remove sutures, clean wounds, and change dressings.

☑️ In addition to direct contact with patients, veterinary technicians also work closely with our clients to communicate patient history, vital signs, test results, at-home care instructions, and much more!

We are so proud of our incredible team of veterinary technicians here at BVNS. Thank you for all of the tremendous work that you do! 💙
