๐ŸŒŸ Saturday Staff Spotlight ๐ŸŒŸ

Today, weโ€™re excited to introduce our amazing Practice Manager, Bri!

Bri began her veterinary journey in 2011 at our sister hospital, and in 2017 she made the move to Gentle Doctorโ€”bringing with her a one-of-a-kind leadership style. She is dedicated to ensuring everyone in the hospital is well cared for, from our patients and clients to our incredible team members. Her guidance and support are essential in our field, and we are truly blessed that she chose us as her work family.

๐Ÿพ Favorite Part of Veterinary Medicine:
โ€œI got into vet med for my passion and love for science and animalsโ€”win-win! What I found was a community of compassion and a drive to continually improve our science, enhancing the quality of life for our patients and their people. After 24 years in veterinary medicine, Iโ€™ve developed an even greater passion for leading, supporting, and growing the Gentle Doctor team. I take the most pride in watching our people grow and achieve their full potential. I leave every day knowing weโ€™ve helped our patients and clientsโ€”is there anything better than a job that allows you to fulfill a purpose larger than yourself?โ€

Today is international animal rights day!

Why should animal rights be protected?
Animal rights are vital for broader environmental and societal health. They reduce pollution and promote responsible resource use while helping maintain a balanced ecosystem. When we safeguard animal rights, we secure the planetโ€™s future.

What can I do for animals' rights?
Join in on International Animal Rights Day activities or spread the word about why animal rights matter. Knowledge is power, so educate your circle about the emotional lives of animals. And don't underestimate lifestyle changes. Reducing your consumption of animal products, for instance, is a standout way to show that you're committed to animal protection โ€” and it's good for the planet, too.
