Madison Veterinary Specialists
It's National Veterinary Technician Week, and at MVS we choose to take this time to recognize the whole team in one long week of celebrations. But there's never enough pizza parties, ice cream cakes, gifts or cards that can truly express just how important all 40 CVTs, 10 Client Care Specialists, 41 Assistants & Coordinators, 21 Veterinarians and 8 Administrative team members are.
Every single one of us is here because it is our passion to provide amazing patient care while taking care of each other, too. This recently made video truly gives us the feels 🥹 while exemplifying the compassionate service and skill our team shares with our community every single day. 🐾
Two weeks ago Oscar came into our hospital unable to walk. A few days later he went home following surgery for a compression of his spinal cord caused by IVDD (intervertebral disc disease). Normally we’d love for our patients to pose for a great ‘success story’ photo…but in this case we’re thrilled that he can’t sit still! It’s so good to see Oscar back on his feet and making progress. ❤️🐾
When the overhead page came through this morning, “Dermatology, Tom Hanks is here to see Dr. Oldenhoff”, you could say we all got a little excited. We were even more thrilled to see this guy walk in, bow-tie and all!
Tom Hanks has been seeing us for a condition called secretory otitis media, otherwise known as ‘glue ear’. It gets this name because patients with this condition have an accumulation of thick, sticky secretions in the middle ear. Tom Hanks was treated with a thorough ear flush under anesthesia last month and has been doing well since!
He also has an awesome level of excitement when it comes to treats, so we definitely had to share a video.
While many restrictions are being lifted, at this time the threat of COVID-19 has unfortunately not been eliminated. Currently, we are still providing emergency and specialty care in a curbside manner to best ensure the health of both you and our staff. Our #1 priority is being available to care for the pets in our community.
This video walks you through your visit to our hospital. We hope it answers some questions. Thanks for putting this together for us, Veteos! ♥️🐾

Rob Lowe is a super special kitty, if you can’t tell. He’s clearly feeling pretty good for just getting out of surgery a few hours ago!
Rob required a TECA (Total Ear Canal Ablation) after our friends at Madison Cat Project identified a mass in his ear that was giving him some trouble. He is so lucky he found the great people at MCP so he could get the care he needed to be pain-free and heathy.
We just can’t get enough of his charming personality and loud purrs. ❤️🐾
Yesterday was an exciting day! The building that will house our MRI was carefully placed by the largest mobile crane in Wisconsin. The MRI will be here next week.
Shout out to our friends at Supreme Structures, Inc. for making sure everything went smoothly!
Our doctors are more than a little excited to be building a new hospital...can you tell? It’s almost as if we’re bursting at the seams in our current one.😋
(Don’t worry, we made sure the confetti was pet-safe and biodegradable!)
