💙 CLIENT LOVE FOR DR. FUCHS & HER TEAM 🐾
There’s nothing better than hearing that a patient like Leyna is thriving after a challenging journey! We’re so grateful to Judy for sharing these kind words about Dr. Allison Fuchs and her team at VVC Short Pump.
“As usual, Dr. Fuchs and her techs are fantastic. So easy to talk to and so good with our schnauzer. She is very uneasy at the vet and/or grooming. Dr. Fuchs really went through the long road with us. This was a tough process with a lot of trouble from the start. Without these people I don’t know how we would have handled it all. Our girl is thriving now!!!”

Thank you, Judy, for trusting our team with your girl’s care. 💙 We know that difficult medical journeys can be stressful for pets and their families, and we’re honored to be there every step of the way. Hearing that she’s thriving makes it all worthwhile!

🎉 TECHNICIAN SPOTLIGHT: CONGRATULATIONS, TRISTAN! 🎉

Please join us in celebrating Tristan on an incredible achievement: earning her Veterinary Technician Specialist (VTS) credential in Anesthesia and Analgesia! 🩺👏

This is an extraordinary accomplishment that represents years of dedication, advanced education, and a commitment to providing the highest level of anesthetic care to veterinary patients. Did you know there are fewer than 300 veterinary technicians worldwide who hold this specialty credential in anesthesia and analgesia? 🌎 This milestone is truly something to celebrate, and we couldn’t be prouder of Tristan!

When asked what she’s most excited about next, Tristan shared:
“I’m incredibly excited about the opportunity to grow as a leader and educator. I plan to be actively involved in the academy by providing mentorship and continuing education opportunities for Veterinary Technicians pursuing their VTS credentials. I hope to inspire others to advance their education, develop their skills, and become strong advocates for high-quality anesthetic care.”

Congratulations, Tristan! Your hard work, passion, and dedication are an inspiration. We can’t wait to see the impact you’ll make as you help other veterinary technicians reach their goals!

🐾 FROM SPINAL FRACTURE TO LIVING HER BEST LIFE! Meet Eva Grace! 💙

When Eva Grace needed help, the team at Bush Veterinary Neurology Service and Virginia Veterinary Centers was there for her. Today, this sweet girl is back to her spunky self and doing what dogs do best: running fast, playing hard, jumping high, and enjoying life!

After her journey with a spinal fracture, Eva Grace has made an incredible recovery under the care of Dr. Michael Higginbotham and the neurology team. Her family recently shared this wonderful update:
“We are so pleased to report that Eva is back to her old spunky self and loving life. She is able to run fast, play hard and jump high! We cannot thank you and the staff at Bush Neurology enough. Your team has made it possible for Miss Eva to live her best life again and be happy!”

Her family has even created a YouTube channel to share the adventures of Eva Grace and her poodle sibling, Oscar, as they enjoy their very best spoiled poodle lives! 🐩❤️
🎥 Follow along with their adventures on YouTube:
