To our tremendous Veterinary Technicians,

Thank you for everything you do for our patients, their families, and our team. Veterinary medicine can be challenging, exhausting, and emotionally demanding, but your compassion, dedication, and commitment make a meaningful difference every day. Thank you for showing up on the difficult days, celebrating the good ones, and always putting the well-being of our patients first. Your hard work does not go unnoticed, and the care you provide reaches far beyond the walls of our hospital. We are incredibly grateful to have you as part of our team and appreciate all that you bring to the veterinary field!

To our incredible clients,

This week we celebrated National Veterinary Technician Appreciation week, and recognized the outstanding hard work our Veterinary Technicians display day after day. Being a Veterinary Technician is far more intricate than most people see. They are phlebotomists, radiology technicians, pharmacy technicians, grief counselors, surgery technicians, laboratory technicians, mentors, and much more. They have a wealth of knowledge across various specialties such as general practice, emergency and critical care, ophthalmology, dermatology, neurology, gastroenterology, and reproduction. The nursing care they provide spans several different species and breeds, and is never one size fits all. They combine medical knowledge, technical expertise, critical thinking, and compassion to support patients throughout every stage of their life. They show immense emotional strength, adaptability and tenacity throughout our work day, where we move from comforting clients as they say goodbye to a beloved companion, sharing in their grief and wiping away tears, to celebrating the joy of a healthy puppy’s first visit with a smile on our face in the very next appointment. They navigate challenging conversations surrounding patient prognoses and financial limitations, sharing in the emotional weight and heartache that often accompany these difficult moments. They also strive to build meaningful relationships with our clients and enjoy hearing about your life milestones and updates along the way. Veterinary technicians are an indispensable part of veterinary medicine, serving as the foundation of patient care and the connection between medical teams and the families who trust us with their beloved companions. Their impact extends far beyond the treatments they provide; they bring empathy to medicine, humanity to difficult moments, and dedication to every life they touch.

Please help us close out this incredible week by dropping a comment below and sharing how a veterinary technician impacted you and your pet!

Ever wonder what your pet does during the day while they’re staying with us at one of our hospitals? We know leaving your fur-baby in our care can feel a little scary, but we’re here to give you a sneak peek behind the scenes and show you just how loved and cared for our patients are!

Our patients receive five-star treatment from the moment they arrive, with plenty of comfort, enrichment, and attention to help them feel safe, secure, and right at home. 🥰

Meet Claire! 💕 During her stay, she enjoyed all the cozy essentials—soft blankets, fun toys, a box to play in, and, of course, plenty of cuddles from our staff!

Because when your pet is with us, we want them to feel like they’re part of the family.

More Information -
Heartworm Disease Guidelines (Simparica Trio Only):
If any dog determined by a licensed veterinarian to be free of heartworm infection at the onset of treatment with Simparica Trio develops heartworm disease, Zoetis will provide
up to $1,000 reimbursement to be used towards the diagnosis and treatment of heartworm disease, as well as provide Diroban®, the injection required for treatment. Zoetis has also committed to provide a year’s supply of Simparica Trio, ProHeart® 6 (moxidectin) or ProHeart® 12 (moxidectin) for the affected pet.
Canine Heartworm Reimbursement Requirements:
- Simparica Trio was the product given each month, every month, according to its label directions.
- Confirmation of heartworm-positive status was obtained by two separate blood samples using at least two different brands of antigen tests.
- Knott’s testing or any other filter test for the detection of microfilariae is not sufficient evidence for pretreatment heartworm negative status, therefore cannot be considered for these requirements.
- Dogs previously treated for heartworm disease must have a negative antigen test prior to starting Simparica Trio.
- Dogs starting or changing heartworm preventatives are required to have two negative antigen tests at least 6 months apart after initiation of Simparica Trio treatment.
Tick Guidelines (Simparica Trio and Simparica):
Simparica Trio and Simparica treat and control tick infestations from Ixodes scapularis (black-legged “deer” tick), Amblyomma americanum (lone star tick), Amblyomma maculatum (Gulf Coast tick), Dermacentor variabilis (American dog tick), Rhipicephalus sanguineus (brown dog tick), and Haemaphysalis longicornis (Asian longhorned tick). Zoetis will reimburse you up to $30.00 for an approved alternative tick treatment for dogs, or reimburse you the cost of one dose of Simparica Trio or Simparica. This Satisfaction Guarantee does not cover any other costs, including, but not limited to, those associated with the control of tick infestations in or around living quarters, or medical treatments or procedures.
*Lyme Satisfaction Guarantee:
Zoetis will cover reasonable diagnostic and treatment costs for suspected cases of canine Lyme disease for qualifying patients. Coverage begins one month after a negative Lyme test and administration of Simparica Trio or Simparica according to label directions. If the diagnostics confirm exposure to Borrelia burgdorferi, this Satisfaction Guarantee will cover physical examination, ancillary diagnostic and, if indicated, therapeutic charges, up to a maximum of $2,500.
Lyme Positive Reimbursement Requirements:
- For dogs over 6 months old that are started on Simparica or Simparica Trio, the owner must show proof of the dog’s negative Lyme test within 1 month of starting treatment with Simparica Trio or Simparica and have a negative yearly test thereafter. For puppies 8 weeks and older but less than 6 months of age that are started on Simparica Trio, a negative test is not required to be eligible for the first year of Lyme coverage. Any qualitative antibody test for Lyme disease may be used as a screening tool to detect natural exposure to Borrelia burgdorferi. Examples include: Zoetis VetScan® Lyme Rapid Test, IDEXX SNAP® 3Dx® Test or SNAP® 4Dx® Test and ANTECH Diagnostics® AccuPlex™4 Test.
- Clients must be able to demonstrate that they purchased enough doses of Simparica Trio or Simparica to provide continuous protection to their dog from the date of the negative Lyme test through the date of the coverage request. For puppies 8 weeks and older but less than 6 months of age that are started on Simparica Trio, clients must be able to demonstrate that they purchased enough doses through the date of the coverage request.
- To qualify for additional benefits from the Zoetis Immunization Support Guarantee, the client must show that: (a) their dog is appropriately vaccinated for Lyme disease; (b) the most recent Lyme vaccine was administered in the preceding 12 months; and (c) the most recent Lyme vaccine was a Zoetis Lyme vaccine (Vanguard® crLyme). If the dog is diagnosed with Lyme disease, Zoetis will reimburse diagnostic and treatment costs up to $7,500 if the patient has received continuous protection with Simparica Trio or Simparica, according to label directions, was vaccinated appropriately AND the last dose of Lyme vaccine administered was a Zoetis vaccine.
Anaplasma and Ehrlichia Satisfaction Guarantee:
Simparica and Simparica Trio are not indicated for the prevention of Anaplasma spp. or Ehrlichia spp. infections. However, Zoetis will review and offer support for dogs that test positive for antibodies to Anaplasma or Ehrlichia on routine screening tests. This Satisfaction Guarantee will cover appropriate diagnostics and antibiotics as warranted, up to a maximum of $500.
Anaplasma and Ehrlichia Reimbursement Guidelines:
- For dogs over 6 months that are started on Simparica or Simparica Trio, the owner must show proof of a negative Anaplasma or Ehrlichia antibody test within 1 month of starting treatment with Simparica or Simparica Trio and have a negative yearly test thereafter. For puppies 8 weeks and older, but less than 6 months of age that are started on Simparica Trio, a negative antibody test is not required to be eligible for the first year of Anaplasma or Ehrlichia coverage.
- Clients must be able to demonstrate that they purchased enough doses of Simparica or Simparica Trio to provide continuous protection for their dog between the initial negative Anaplasma and Ehrlichia antibody test through the date of the coverage they request. For puppies 8 weeks and older but less than 6 months of age that are started on Simparica Trio, clients must be able to demonstrate that they purchased enough doses through the date of the coverage request.
