Happy Veterinary Technician Week to our five fabulous CVT's.

Today is a bittersweet moment for DeSoto Animal Clinic. Vicki has been part of our family for 33 years, fulfilling many roles during her time here. As she retires and heads to the beautiful Pacific Northwest, we feel a mix of joy for her new adventures and sadness at losing such a valued employee and friend.
