Every surgery starts long before the first incision. It starts with a veterinary technician who has spent years mastering their skills, anticipating needs, monitoring vitals, and showing up fully prepared for every patient who comes through the door.

Vet techs are the heart of every OR team, and their skill and dedication make a difference every single day. At some VCA specialty hospitals, we take surgical collaboration even further. Some of our teams include Certified Surgical Technologists (CSTs) — professionals who earned specialized degrees specifically to support surgeons in the OR.

The result? Less time under anesthesia. Better outcomes. And a team that truly works as one. 💙

Because every patient is somebody's pet — and they deserve nothing less than the best.

We have another tie for Employee of the Month! It's a great problem to have when you can't chose just one amazing person from the team as a stand-out rockstar 🎉✨ Denali and Kalene are two of our awesome team members, sharing the title this month.

Kalene has been with us since 2024, and has a wide range of skills. You might see her at our reception desk, or in an exam room. Kalene is one of those people that can weather a tough day, support those around her, and catch you by surprise with her quick wit! Kalene is growing her technical skills and obtained her first blood sample this week! Way to go, Kalene!😺

Denali joined our team earlier this year and is turning into a jack of all trades! She's a smiling face, a helping hand and makes sure she's doing the very best by our patients. 🐾❤️

Help us to celebrate these two wonderful ladies!

Meet Alice — our Good Pet of The Week! 💕 This sweet girl has a big personality, a love for tasty liver snacks, and a hilarious habit of trying to “taste-test” fingers along with her treats. (Don’t worry, her kisses are much gentler than her snack enthusiasm! 😄)
