Happy Wednesday from Miso!

Visiting all the way from Utah. This handsome guy came in for possibly ingesting a rubber band. After some radiographs and an exam, he was able to go home and return to his rambunctious kitten activities!

Meet Butta Bean!

Both her and her sister were participants in the great chocolate heist...their prize...induced vomiting at the ER. Luckily their parents acted quickly! We were able to induce vomiting, treat for toxicity and send these sweet girls home; thanks to Dr. Kitagaki.

If your pet ingests chocolate, please call 541-385-9110 ASAP.

Chocolate contains theobromine and caffeine, which are similar compounds and cause similar clinical signs such as an increase in heart rate, blood pressure, agitation, tremors, and seizures.

For our close to National Veterinary Technician week, we’d like to go out with a bang by celebrating BAE’s Practice Manager and CVT, Brittany!

Since joining BAE in 2021, Brittany has been a shining star in our community. Growing up in the Bay Area, her love for animals—especially cats—has been a lifelong passion. She started her journey with us as a Veterinary Assistant, then pursued and graduated from Penn Foster’s Veterinary Technician program. After earning her license, she quickly stepped into the role of Practice Manager—affectionately dubbed the "Prime Minister of BAE."

Brittany’s dedication to her staff, clients, and patients is truly remarkable. Her meticulous attention to detail and unwavering positivity create an inspiring atmosphere for everyone around her.

When not at work, you can find Brittany and her husband Rick exploring the Oregon coastline, cooking, traveling or working on their rebuild of their 1966 Sunroof Beetle named Gladys! They have a fabulous animal pack that consists of a sassy chihuahua and two black kitties.

As we approach the final day of vet tech week 2024, we’d like to acknowledge BAE’s specialty coordinator and stellar CVT, Tricia!

Tricia has had a love for animals since birth. She received a degree in Medical Laboratory Technology and went to work in a local animal hospital. Upon moving to Bend in 2004, she was encouraged to challenge the Oregon State Veterinary Medical Examining Board and sit for her CVT credentials, which she passed with flying colors. She and her husband have two grown sons, a grandson, a flock of chickens, a Cane Corso named Buffy and a Canoodle Willi Vanilli.

Tricia has been an integral part of the BAE team since day one, and we are so incredibly lucky to have her. Happy tech week Tricia, we appreciate you so very much! 💙🧡

We're excited to spotlight our wonderful team member, Alyssa! Though she’s been with us for a short time, she’s already made a fantastic impact on our overnight ICU/ECU team. Alyssa thrives on the variety that night shifts bring, and her energy is infectious!

Alyssa has been passionate about veterinary medicine since she was 18. With experience in both ICU and GP care, she also has a special love for equine medicine! Alyssa is always on the go—whether she’s cleaning, caring for patients, or tackling daily tasks, her dedication truly stands out.

When she's not at work, you’ll find Alyssa enjoying time with her pets, including her horse and two dogs, Addison and Goose. We're lucky to have her on our team!

Our next CVT spotlight is Kayla!

Kayla is highly trained in ICU and emergency care, with a passion for nutrition and client education. No matter how big or small the task may be, she is always ready to jump in and help! Kayla is such a joy to have at work, as she brings a cheerful and hardworking attitude with her each day.

Before starting her career in veterinary medicine, Kayla nurtured her love for animals through her involvement in 4h. Kayla has three pets, a tripod cat named Bret Michaels and two dogs, Cooper and Kai-Anne. When she's not at work, Kayla enjoys spending time with family, friends and exploring the beautiful sights of Oregon!

Today, we’re super excited to spotlight three incredible technicians at BAE!

First up is Megan, who joined the BAE family in 2021. Her journey with animals began in 4h and FFA, igniting a passion for veterinary medicine. With experience in general practice and ICU care, she thrives in surgical assisting, nursing, and client education. Her genuine care for clients and patients shines through in everything she does. Oftentimes you will find Megan comforting her ICU patients with Disney movies and the comfiest of blankets.

When Megan is not at work, you can find her exploring the outdoors with her pack, which includes two German Shorthaired Pointers and a Jack Russell Terrier!

Up next, we are celebrating a long time CVT here at BAE, Alisha! She has been with us for the last 13 years! Her dedication to our clinic, community and patients is so appreciated! Over her years here at BAE, she has been in management, training positions, cardiology and most recently has made the transition back to full time ECC/ICU.

Alisha is not only a CVT but is also a Veterinary Technician Specialist in Emergency and Critical Care. This title is earned by completing extensive training in emergency and critical care, and then sitting for the Academy of Veterinary Emergency and Critical Care Technician and Nurses Examination.

When not at work, you can find Alisha enjoying Central Oregon’s beautiful outdoor activities with her two dogs, Iris and River and her three kiddos!

This week, we’re thrilled to celebrate Claire as she experiences her very first CVT Week here at BAE! We are so grateful to have her on our team!
Claire’s exceptional ability to manage multiple ICU cases, think on her feet, and advocate effectively for her patients makes her an invaluable asset to our ICU and critical care team. Her years of ICU bedside nursing experience matched with the genuine compassion she has truly sets her apart. Claire’s ability to advocate for patients goes beyond bedside care, her honesty and tact in difficult circumstances gives clients comfort with the grace and compassion she brings to every conversation.
Claire began her career at a bustling ICU/ECC hospital that handled a high volume of patients. After a few years of the grind in California, she decided to take a leap into the slower paced, easy going environment that Bend, Oregon has to offer. We are so happy that you are here, thank you for your dedication and commitment to our patients and their families. We’re so lucky to have you on our team!

We would love to congratulate Abby on her first ever National Certified Veterinary Technician week.

Abby is a 2024 graduate of the COCC veterinary technician program. She absolutely rocked it with us last summer and is now on full time as one of our weekend swing Emergency Critical Care Technicians! Abby came to BAE with a general practice background and has volunteered with our friends over at Think Wild handling birds of prey. Her passion for emergency medicine has grown in the last year and we are absolutely delighted to have her on our team. Her excitement for learning and genuine compassion is infectious.

When not at work, you can find her at Mt Bachelor snowboarding, exploring with her new fiancé and beautiful shepherd named Beans or relaxing doing yoga with her cat Sidewalk.

Join us in celebration of Abby! Happy CVT week!

Kicking off CVT week; we’re shining the spotlight on Karie! Karie has been with BAE since 2018 and has stuck by our side through many transitions. Some lore on Karie! She grew up in Costa Rica, where she was able to immerse herself in veterinary medicine at a young age by participating in spay and neuter clinics and helping to rescue local wildlife such as sea turtles, marine mammals, monkeys and pelicans. After moving to Oregon in 2012, Karie obtained her Associates of Science degree in Veterinary Technology in 2018. She is in the process of furthering her knowledge by obtaining her Veterinary Technician Specialty designation in Emergency and Critical Care. To earn this title, a Certified Veterinary Technician must complete extensive training in emergency and critical care, and then sit for the Academy of Veterinary Emergency and Critical Care Technician and Nurses examination. We are so proud of Karie and her dedication to veterinary medicine! She is so incredibly passionate about emergency and critical care. Please help us celebrate and thank Karie, for all that she does and has accomplished! ❤️

Today we had the pleasure of treating a Great Horned Owl! He was found injured by a Good Samaritan. Our veterinarians are able to provide basic triage and care, but are unable to rehabilitate. This is where Think Wild comes in! Think Wild is a local 501(c) non-profit organization that provides medical care for injured and orphaned native wildlife from Central and parts of Eastern Oregon. After being stablized, we transfered to Think Wild where this guy will hopefully be able to be rehabilitated and released! 🦅🧡💙
