Most of our clients know that we are closed every Tuesday from 12-2 for a staff meeting. What most clients aren't aware of, is that every year, the Tuesday before Thanksgiving, instead of a meeting we have a huge Hicks Family Potluck Dinner.
In January of this year we lost our beloved Dr. Baker, which was a huge blow to Doctors and staff, who had made Dr
Baker an important part of the Hicks Family.
Before he had passed, Dr. Hicks had nominated him for the Missouri Veterinary Medical Foundation Honor Roll. Dr. Baker passed before he could receive the plaque, so it was arranged for Dr. Ed Migneco, from the foundation to present the plaque to Dr
Bakers family at our Thanksgiving Potluck!
Everyone enjoyed the presentation, visiting with Dr
Bakers wife Brenda, daughter Heather and son Shawn. We laughed, we cried and we laughed some more.
This was absolutly the best Hicks Family Potluck Dinner!

The Hicks Animal Hospital Family understands that sometimes we all need a hand up. With that in mind we have a food drive box in our lobby, if clients would like to donate 5 non-parishable, non-expired food items, we will give you 10% off any service. If you are not a client and would like to donate, the locale community would appreciate your donation. Thank you everyone for your kindness.

Yesterday was a sad day for our staff as we said good bye and Rest in Peace to our very own house cat, Thunder.
He came to our clinic in 2018, and lived out his best life, stealing food from employees, laying across their key boards in order to command immediate attention and cuddles, and hogging up all the sunny spots, whether those spots could accommodate his size or not. He never met a ham sandwich or a Taco he didn’t love.
Thunder was in the hearts of Dr. Hicks and all her employees and will be sorely missed while he is in Kitty Heaven, gobbling up all the kibble and cat nip he can find.
Rest in peace big boy, your time on earth is done and you are forever in our thoughts. ❤️ 🐈 😇
