Meet Artemis, Dr. Lamb’s brave chicken who recently underwent cataract surgery. A year ago, Artemis developed a cataract in one eye and managed well, but when a second one appeared in her other eye, she began having trouble getting around. Thanks to Dr. Reed at Eyeshine Veterinary, Artemis now has her vision back and is navigating the world with confidence! 🙌

Many people don’t realize that cataract surgery is possible for animals—including exotics like chickens—but with collaborations between our team and other amazing specialists, these life-changing treatments are within reach! 💛

This is Taz, a 29-year-old macaw who came to our hospital because he has an oral mass that has been growing in size. If left untreated, this mass could make it difficult for Taz to swallow, which would impact his ability to eat and drink. Dr. Walth performed his surgery and removed the mass by cauterizing the mass at its base. Taz did well under anesthesia and after the surgery, he received a nail and beak trim. Taz has been recovering well and he looked great during his follow up appointment. Thank you for coming in Taz! 💛

𝐎𝐮𝐫 𝐀𝐩𝐫𝐢𝐥 𝐒𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐒𝐭𝐚𝐫: 𝐊𝐚𝐭𝐡𝐥𝐞𝐞𝐧! 🤩✨ We’re thrilled to announce Kathleen as this month’s Shining Star! As Kathleen is our longest-employed staff member at AEVC, we feel like this is long overdue. From day one, Kathleen has brought an incredibly positive attitude to every interaction. She’s always willing to lend a hand without complaint and is quick to step up when something needs to be done—especially the behind-the-scenes work that keeps our practice running smoothly. Whether it’s cleaning, laundry, or post-procedure prep, Kathleen takes care of it all with grace, allowing our veterinary assistants to focus on providing top-notch patient care. Recently, Kathleen has been sharing her unique expertise as a certified professional bird trainer, expanding her impact beyond our clinic walls as she led her first virtual bird training session with a green cheek conure for the Tucson location—a major milestone and an exciting step for our broader community! Thank you, Kathleen, for everything you do. Your compassion, positivity, and dedication don’t go unnoticed. 💛

This is Nacho, an Amazon parrot who came to our hospital for a broken leg. We took x-rays to evaluate the fracture, which was the tibiotarsus (equivalent to your shin bone). Dr. Ruoff then performed orthopedic surgery to place a metal pin within the bone and a splint on the leg to hold the fragments together for healing. Nacho enjoyed her pain medications as well as extra attention from her owners during her recovery. She healed well and the pin was able to be removed. Nacho is now back to her normal self and said “I love you” to Dr. Ruoff as a thank you during her last recheck! 💛🦜

This is Linguine, a 1 year old female Veiled Chameleon who presented for her coelom (belly) looking larger than normal for the past 2 months. Our team took radiographs and discovered numerous follicles inside her! Since she did not resorb her follicles, we call this “follicular stasis”. The best way to address the issue is to spay Linguine to remove her ovaries. This surgery will eliminate the problem and prevent more serious complications in the future.

Dr. Lykins spayed Linguine and she has been doing well since. 💛
