Wow… can you imagine staying at the same job for 20 years?! 😲

Carol can — because today she officially hits 20 years in veterinary medicine! She started in the kennel and worked her way through every support staff role along the way, and now leads as our General Manager.

Safe to say… she’s seen it ALL 🐶🐱💉

Help us congratulate Carol on this incredible milestone and give her a well-deserved round of applause! 👏

The "Pre-Vet Med" Files 🍼🐾”

We’re calling ourselves out. We’ve raided the childhood scrapbooks to see what the team looked like before we traded playground slides for "mystery fluids" and a clinical caffeine dependency.

It’s time to put your detective skills to work! Can you figure out which of these tiny humans grew up to be your favorite staff members?

The Rules:
• Scroll through and match the baby face to the staff member.
• Cast your votes in the comments: Who hasn't aged a single day?
• And more importantly... who looks like they were already mentally preparing to wrestle a spicy Chihuahua for a nail trim?

Let the guessing begin! 👇

This week, we’re celebrating Veterinary Receptionist Week 2026, April 19-25! 🐾

Our receptionists are the heart of our clinic—they juggle phone calls, comfort worried pet parents, keep everything running smoothly, and somehow still greet everyone with a smile. They truly wear many hats, and we couldn’t do what we do without them.

If you have a moment, please join us in showing appreciation for our amazing team: Laura, Vickie, Bobby, Nina, our newest additions Lauren and Allen, our wonderful fill-in Elle, and you can even catch our manager Ryan in reception filling in as needed. . 💙

A quick “thank you” can mean the world—feel free to share your kind words next time you visit or drop a comment below!

Meet Our Owner: Dr. Hung Vu

We are pleased to introduce the owner of our practice, Dr. Hung Vu.

Dr. Vu was raised in Northern Virginia and earned his undergraduate degree from the University of Virginia before going on to complete veterinary school at Virginia Tech.

His professional interests include behavior and urgent care. As a Fear Free certified Veterinarian, Dr. Vu is committed to creating a calm, comfortable, and low-stress experience for every patient who walks through our doors.

Outside of the clinic, Dr. Vu enjoys trivia and collecting interesting (and sometimes useless) facts. He especially enjoys spending time with his wife and fellow veterinarian, Dr. Katherine Amos, and their toddler son. He is often described as a class clown, bringing a lighthearted energy that keeps both clients and team members smiling.

We are proud to have his leadership, experience, and personality guiding our team.

Want to join our team? We are hiring experienced veterinary professionals who are passionate about pets and helping us make the veterinary industry better, one day at a time.
