✨ Staff Member Spotlight ✨

Meet Katie, one of the friendly faces you’ll see at our front desk!

Katie has spent an impressive 20 years in the veterinary field, including 18 years as a veterinary technician before making the switch to reception nearly two years ago. Safe to say, she’s seen it all!

When she’s not helping pets and their people, she enjoys spending time with her husband, her two children, and her furry family member. She’s also an Army veteran and an avid collector of model horses. Last year, she said goodbye to her beloved cat of 18 years, who will always hold a special place in her heart ❤️

We’re so grateful to have her experience, kindness, and sense of humor on our team!

Diagnostic ultrasounds help us get a closer look at your pet's health. This safe, non-invasive tool allows our team to evaluate internal organs, identify concerns, and provide accurate diagnoses to support the best possible care.

🐾 June is National Microchipping Month! 🐾

A microchip is a tiny tool that can make a huge difference if your pet ever gets lost. Unlike collars and tags, a microchip is a permanent form of identification that helps reunite pets with their families quickly and safely 💛🐶🐱

Swipe for helpful benefits and tips for microchipping your furry friend! 🩺

✨ Remember:
✅ Register your pet’s microchip after implantation
✅ Ask us to scan your pet’s microchip at their next visit to ensure it’s working properly and your contact information is current
✅ Add a backup contact for extra security and peace of mind

Because every adventure should end with your best friend back home where they belong 🏡💙

Have questions about microchipping? Our team is happy to help!

Today we’re celebrating an incredible milestone — 10 amazing years with Dr. Kurth! 🩺✨

For the past decade, Dr. Kurth has been such a bright light for our team, our clients, and every patient lucky enough to be in her care. Her kindness, compassion, thoughtfulness, and unwavering dedication shine through in everything she does. She leads with heart, treats every pet like family, and brings comfort and positivity to those around her every single day.

We are beyond grateful for the love, knowledge, and care she has poured into this hospital and community over the last 10 years. Thank you, Dr. Kurth, for being so magnificent in every way — we truly could not imagine this place without you. ❤️🐾

Happy 10-year anniversary! Here’s to many more!

Some of the very best things in life are rescued. 🐾❤️

Today we celebrate the dogs who got a second chance — and gave us unconditional love in return.

Happy National Rescue Dog Day to all the amazing rescue pups and the people who opened their hearts and homes to them.
