(535)

Your family veterinarian and Advanced Veterinary Care (AVC) are here to help. AVC is a specialty referral practice providing sophisticated emergency and critical care, trauma management, surgery, internal medicine, and referral services. Quality medical care begins with your family veterinarian. From time to time, your doctor may ask AVC to be a part of the medical team which cares for your pet, a

nd they will refer you to AVC. By referring you to us when your pet is ill or injured, your doctor demonstrates confidence in our ability to help you through a difficult and emotional time. AVC is always available to you for emergencies at those times your family veterinarian is closed. Should you ever find yourself in need of emergency services, you may walk into AVC at any time, day or night, without an appointment. We understand the worry and stress that can result from your pet’s illness or injury, and we will do our very best to ensure that you both are provided with the compassion and quality care you deserve.

It’s Vet Tech Week, and we’re celebrating the backbone of our hospital, our incredible technicians and tech assistants.

They’re the ones who keep things moving no matter what. They stock the hospital, clean the runs, monitor anesthesia, run diagnostics, fill meds, comfort patients, and support clients through the hardest moments. They’re the ones staying late, skipping breaks, and holding everything (and everyone) together.

They work long hours under high stress, handle heartbreaking cases, and still show up with compassion and strength. They deal with cat scratches, dog bites, sore backs, and tired knees. They face upset clients and still manage to smile and care like it’s the first patient of the day.

For all that you do, seen and unseen, thank you from the bottom of our hearts. You make the difference every single day. 💙💙💙

We couldn’t do it without you, and we don’t ever want to.🙏🏼

Happy Veterinary Technician Week!
This week (and every week), we celebrate the incredible humans who make veterinary medicine possible our technicians and technician assistants.🐶

They are the heartbeat of our hospital, the ones behind the scenes keeping everything running smoothly. From stocking supplies, cleaning runs, and monitoring anesthesia, to running diagnostics, filling prescriptions, and comforting patients, and clients, yes they do it all.

They endure long hours, high case volumes, emotional rollercoasters, cat scratches, dog bites, sore backs, and tired knees. They give every ounce of empathy and care, often without the recognition or compensation they truly deserve.

To our technical staff…thank you🙏🏼Thank you for your dedication, compassion, grit, and skill. Thank you for caring deeply, working tirelessly, and showing up for every patient as if they were your own. We couldn’t do what we do without you, and we wouldn’t want to. 💚

Happy , you are seen, valued, and appreciated more than you know. 🐾

🦎💚 Echo Day for Our Iguana Friend! 💚🦎

This beautiful iguana came in today for an echocardiogram! To help keep her calm and stress-free during her procedure, we gently covered her eyes and ears to reduce visual and auditory stimuli, creating a cozy little “iguana spa day.” 🧘‍♀️

✨ Fun Fact: Iguanas have a three-chambered heart; two atria and one ventricle! This unique setup helps them efficiently circulate blood while basking, climbing, or just chilling under their heat lamp.

💓 A big shoutout to our board-certified cardiologist, Dr. Kya DeGarmo! Her schedule is open and she’s ready to see your pets…big or small, fluffy or covered in scales. Whether it’s a routine check-up or something more advanced, your pets are in expert hands.

😺✨ Meet the Coolest Cat Around! ✨😺

What feline friend do you know that helps oversee medical records and keeps our technicians’ documentation in check? 🗂️🐾

This furry supervisor takes the cake and maybe made a biscuits between charts👩🏼‍🍳💤💻 Whether it’s keeping morale high or offering silent “purr-approval,” this cat knows how to keep the AVC team on track in style.

Because at Advanced Veterinary Care, even our feline teammates are part of the crew! 💙

🐾💪 A Birth Story as Unique as Her Name! 💪🐾

This beautiful Bully came to AVC for an emergency after experiencing dystocia, a difficult labor with a large puppy stuck in the birth canal for over 24 hours and no improvement with labor. Our emergency team quickly jumped into action, and she was taken to surgery for a C-section and spay to save her and her puppies.

Thanks to the teamwork between our Departments, and the quick decisions made by her dedicated care team, this mama delivered a huge, healthy litter, with most of her puppies thriving despite the stressful start. 🍼💖

At Advanced Veterinary Care, we’re proud to offer 24/7 emergency and specialty services under one roof, making referrals and continued care seamless for both patients and clients. From emergency interventions to specialist consults and follow-up car, your pets are in expert hands, day or night. 🌙✨

😹 When We Say “Full of 💩,” We Mean It… Literally! 😹💩

This poor kitty came to AVC with a painfully full belly, and after an exam and radiographs, we discovered the cause… he was literally full of crap! 🤪

A little medical magic (and some TLC from our team) helped get things moving again 💨and this cool cat is feeling much lighter and happier now! 🐾😅

At Advanced Veterinary Care, we’re here 24/7 for every kind of emergency, even the ones that are, well… a bit backed up. 😉
