It is Registered Veterinary Technician (RVT) Week!

RVTs are essential members of the veterinary healthcare team, providing critical support for animal care and clinic operations. Here is a brief overview of their importance and roles:

🐾Clinical Support and Care
RVTs assist veterinarians during examinations, surgeries, and treatments; including monitoring vital signs, administering medications, and performing diagnostic tests. They also give your pet TLC if they were their own; ensuring that every pet feels safe and loved.

🐾 Technical Skills
RVTs are trained to assist the veterinarian with surgical procedures, take radiographs, do blood draws, place intravenous catheters, and administer all sorts of medications.

🐾 Client Education and Communication
RVTs educate pet owners about preventative care such as blood tests, vaccinations, diet, f***l and urine testing, parasite prevention, the importance of spaying/neutering, the benefits of pet health insurance and more. They are always willing to answer questions that clients may have about their pet.

🐾 Administrative Roles
RVTs also are able to do essential administrative tasks such as scheduling appointments, assisting in medical record keeping, sending insurance claims, and tending to follow-up calls as needed.

🐾 Continued Education
RVTs engage in ongoing education to stay current with veterinary advancements, ensuring high-quality care for their patients.

Registered Veterinary Technicians wear many hats in the veterinary world, and are vital to every veterinary practice. They ensure every pet gets the best and most compassionate care possible; every single time ❤. We would like to thank all of you for everything that you do 🥰.

Blending Maritime Charm with Mountain Adventure: Welcome Dr. Kellie McCallum

Dr. Kellie McCallum is a mountain-loving prairie girl who has found herself embracing the rugged charm of the East Coast. Though her heart remains deeply rooted in the rich Manitoba soil where her family’s farm has thrived since the 1870s, the salty sea air and rolling waves have added a new chapter to her story.

She graduated from the University of Saskatchewan with a Veterinary Medicine degree in 2009. Over the years, she has worked in private practice, shelter medicine, and as a relief veterinarian across Western Canada.

Historically, running was a major part of her life—some might say an obsession. She competed in five marathons, including the prestigious Boston Marathon, multiple trail ultramarathons and stage races.

Her adventurous spirit doesn’t end there. She has travelled and backpacked extensively, always seeking out new experiences. Dr. Kellie McCallum got engaged to her veterinarian husband on top of Kilimanjaro at sunrise, on Valentine’s Day, no less! Their honeymoon took them to Everest Base Camp, setting the tone for a life filled with extraordinary adventures. They’ve been married for almost six years, and their greatest adventure is unfolding as they parent their two toddlers.

We’re delighted to welcome Dr. Kellie McCallum to our team! Her adventurous spirit brings new energy to our community, and with her on board, we’re excited to offer expanded appointment times. Whether you’re a familiar face or a new client, Dr. Kellie McCallum is here to provide the compassionate care your pets deserve - a new home for the same trusted care!
