It's been a little while since we've done a staff feature... so here we are to share a bit about our wonderful RVT, Christy! π©Ί
Christy entered into the wonderful world of veterinary medicine in 1994, working as a veterinary assistant in an equine practice, then transitioned into small animal medicine in 1996. She has experience at small animal clinics & hospitals, a marine wildlife rescue center, and an emergency clinic in the roles of a veterinary assistant, team lead, veterinary technician, and clinic manager. π
Christy first met Dr. Mackenzie in 1996 while working together at two other clinics, then in 1999 when Dr. Mackenzie purchased the Fort Langley Veterinary Clinic, she joined the team and never left! She worked here full time until 2008 and then became a part time teammate as an RVT. β€οΈ
Christy loves all aspects of veterinary medicine, there isn't a patient she doesn't love, but she has a little extra passion for anesthesia and sugar-face (senior) patient care. πΎ
Life outside the clinic for Christy almost always involves being outdoors with her husband and her lovely new young dog Tait. She loves travelling, hiking, exploring new paths in the forest, campfires, gardening, BBQs with friends, sitting out with a good book, and of course is always game for laughter with good red wine, milk chocolate, and dark roast coffee! β
