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.

✨ VCA Foothill took over Disneyland! ✨

We decided to bring the whole crew to the Happiest Place on Earth 🎢

From taking care of fur babies to taking care of our inner children… we’re basically professionals at both. 🐾🤣

Someone probably said, “I’m tired” at least 47 times. 😂

Edie, a 10-week-old kitten, is seeing Dr. Howes for her eye recheck today. Here she is with Veterinary Assistants Gisselle and Adrinna getting her vitals before her appointment starts. Recheck exams are an important part of the healing process, allowing us to monitor progress, make sure treatments are working, and catch any concerns early to help our patients stay on the road to recovery. Way to go, Edie!
