I am privileged to work alongside two terrific young women who deeply love animals. They are also outstanding medical professionals. So during this National Veterinary Technician Week (October 11th-17th) I thank and celebrate Abbey Santos, CVT and Michelle Thomson for the gift they are to animals and to me. Thanks as well to all who serve animals as Veterinary Technicians and your commitment to the best of our profession.
Thank you for taking care of me!
