Dr Cosby, Dr Ehreth, and Jamie LVT spent the last week in Orlando, FL at the world's largest veterinary conference, VMX! They earned a combined 48 hours in Continuing Education hours, and walked a combined 215,049 steps throughout the week. They gained additional information and knowledge in all areas and aspects of veterinary medicine and are eager to share it with their MAH counterparts. In addition to their lectures, the trio was able to enjoy time networking with veterinary professionals from all over the world, attended a Top Golf dinner with fellow NVA colleagues from all over the United States, and they enjoyed a night of fun at Universal Studios sponsored by Boehringer Ingleheim. We are excited to have them back in the hospital tomorrow!

We are so happy that sweet Mickey is recovering well from his fracture repair with Dr. Scott and will soon be able to run into the arms of his new family! ❤️

Look at this big boy! It’s been
A little over two weeks post follow up on Mickey’s brutal bone surgery and he is doing great! Such sincere thanks to Dr Scott at Mechanicsville Animal Hospital —he refused to give up during a very challenging surgery and put his leg back together. Micky still has a lot of healing to do, but it’s looking great so far. A big THANK YOU to you special people who donated towards his surgery to keep his leg!!!!!
