Earlier this month, Dr. Keramaty joined the outreach mission of Project Samana on the Samaná Peninsula in the Dominican Republic, bringing her veterinary expertise for the third year, to a community where both working equines and companion animals are integral to everyday livelihoods. She worked with an amazing small animal team to provide spay/neuter surgeries, vaccinations, parasite control, and wound and urgent care for both owned and stray dogs and cats. Over 150 surgeries were performed. A highlight of the week was a surprise reunion with a lovely street dog who had come in the day before limping, with infected wounds on his leg. He was castrated and received wound care, and was SO HAPPY when they saw him the next day. The resilience of animals and people under challenging circumstances is inspiring to be a part of.

Thank you to our Merck representative, who donated preventatives, including Bravecto Quantum, which will provide 1 year of flea and tick control to these animals in need.
And Thank You to our Medical Director, Dr. Keramaty who not only goes above and beyond for our team here, she dedicates her talents to volunteer for those in need as well. 🥰🐾❤️
