Registered Veterinary Technician
Your pet deserves the best care! That is why we have a registered veterinary technician to assist in the care of your pet. A RVT is your pet’s “nurse”. Whether she is drawing blood from your pet, placing an IV catheter, monitoring anesthesia, or assisting in surgery, our RVT offers your pet exceptional care. Our RVT is up to date on major developments in veterinary medicine through continuing education opportunities such as seminars, workshops, regional and national meetings as well as regular staff meetings. We feel very fortunate to have a RVT in our practice.

Christy works primarily with our equine patients and shows a great deal of skill and patience with them. She also has a special interest in anesthesia.

Four Legged Staff
Willy
Willy joined the group in October of 2005, when he came in for treatment following a dogfight and liked it so much he never left. He is the playful one of the bunch and can often be found chasing toys up and down the hall. He also likes to challenge Archie for the position of official clinic greeter.
