Welcome back to PA, Dr. Riehl!
Our favorite rodent/reptile/avian doctor spent this past week learning more about the scales and slitheries in New Orleans at meeting.
We appreciate our staff members striving to learn all the new things in their field to bring back to us. We can’t wait to hear all about your week, Lexi!

“Riley” came to see us August Final Friday in Parkesburg
She is all recovered from her emergency spay surgery and ready to check out the action. It was great to see her!
Come and see us. We are here til 9 with games for kids and free stuff for adults, and snacks for the dogs.🐶😊
Welcome to Meghan, one of our newest vet techs. We are excited to have her skill set and personality on board. When you’re in next, be sure to ask for Meghan.
What a transformation! This guy is feeling much better since emergency surgery on Tues. night.
Keep improving “Osiris”- we are all pulling for you!
❤️
Labor Day weekend is upon us.
Plan ahead for prescriptions for your pet, let us know if you need refills prior to Sat 8/31.
Our hours of operation and emergency contacts are listed below.
This sweet boy presented to us in need of an emergency splenectomy, so Dr. Walsh and Dr. Tuma removed his spleen this evening. As he is waking up Dr. Walsh is giving him a mani-pedi, hopefully purple is his color of choice!
The spleen is commonly an organ in need of emergency removal, due to rupture, enlargement or cancer. Dogs can live without their spleen, they just may need some lifestyle adjustments, such as their health care routine, including regular veterinary check-ups to ensure they remain healthy. Fortunately, we can visualize the spleen with the use of ultrasound if there is any question about its vitality.
Good luck to mom and "Osiris", we hope you feel better soon.
Happy Birthday to Allison!
Allison is one of our veterinary technicians, you can find her helping in the exam rooms and in surgery. She has a bright smile and bubbly personality that will put anyone in a good mood! :)
Have a great day today, Allison - happy, happy day today and many more to come!
Celebrate by scheduling an appointment for your favorite canine. We are saving a seat for you, and your best pal!
How many parents are smiling wryly this evening, the eve of Back to School?!
Whether you’re celebrating outwardly or feeling a little sad, we are wishing all kids, teachers and parents a great Back to School!
She wears them well!
“Deandra” is sporting some cool sandals, in an effort to heal her bumblefoot. How great is this?!
❤️
Happy Birthday to our Inventory Manager, Bree!
While "behind the scenes", Bree is an integral part of our daily routine, her contributions make a significant impact on all that we do. Bree has been with Pine Creek in the roll of Inventory Manager, prior she was a technician and has been known to fill in at the front desk as well!
Take a second to wish Bree a happy birthday and a well deserved day off. Thanks for all that you do for us!

While we can't solve all of the problems your pet may have, we can solve a lot of them.
Itchy dog? Cat urinating inappropriately? A bunny with hairloss? A beardy that is not eating? Bird that is pulling it's feathers out?
Bring your pet and it's problem(s) to us and we will do our best to resolve the issue. Because let's face it, Veterinarians are like detectives!
If only catching a urine sample from a cat was this easy!
Testing a pet’s urine can give us valuable information, so even if it’s difficult to obtain, it’s worth the effort.
8/22/24- or any day!
This post highlights the reasons that your cat should come in to see us.
Call (610)593-6132 to schedule today!

This is a good day to remind everyone of our non-profit fund, Brandie's Hope, how it was established, what it does and how to donate.
Brandie was a beloved veterinary technician that worked at Pine Creek and tragically lost her life in a vehicle accident in May of 2021. We established this fund as a way to remember and honor Brandie, while helping pets in need of urgent medical care. We have helped many pets and their owners through contributions from generous donors - either directly through Veterinary Care Foundation or through the various fundraisers and open houses we hold. We appreciate the generosity of all that have, and will donate in memory of Brandie- know that your donations make a difference!

Jumping into the weekend like “Jinx”, the geiko.
And, a reminder that we are open today until 5, with sick visits available as the schedule allows. Phones open at 8am.
Meet “Pepper”.
We got to see this sweet boy today to check a lump under his ear ( amongst other things ). It turns out that he has quite a history in his short life! He was found in a yard, not a wild bunny but a domestic dwarf. He has a cut ear ( which you can see in the first photo ) and a flap of skin that healed incorrectly on his nose. The lump under his ear is one of many pieces of gunshot, at some point this guy was running for his life.
We are pleased to know he has a sweet family to care for him, and with a little TLC should be feeling much better soon.
We love seeing rabbits, pocket pets, rodents, reptiles and avian. Our day also consisted of a gecko, ferret, 2 chickens, kittens, dogs and cats. New patients are ALWAYS welcome at Pine Creek.

If your pet is microchipped, this is a good time to make sure the registration information is current.
If your pet is not microchipped, talk with us about getting your pet permanent identification!
Cats are 20x more likely to be reunited if they are microchipped.
Our microchips also register a body temperature, so no more re**al themometer for your pet if it is microchipped.
1 in 3 people don't know if their microchipped pet is registered, or if their information is current. Ask us to verify your pets microchip and to confirm the registration.
It’s “see ya later” to Seth today, as he heads off to Canada for his first year of vet school!
Good luck, study hard and remember all of your friends at Pine Creek!
We recently met "Bo", a sweet 12 y/o Pit Bull with a painful facial abscess, amongst other things. He had been shuffled from one owner to another, but now has an owner invested in his well being. The before and after is a heart warming transformation.
These types of cases make us all feel good about being in veterinary medicine! You go, Bo! And many thanks to your owner for helping you on the road to recovery.
Making our surgical patients a little more comfortable while they’re in our care. That’s what we do.
“Chloe” brought her stuffy with her for her dental procedure. “Stuffy” made his way through the procedure with “Chloe” - from the pre-op to the dental, and finally recovery.
It’s the little things, but we think they make a difference! Anything to make our patients feel more comfortable while they’re with us.
If you’ve had a great experience with us, we’d love to hear from you too! Feel free to leave a review on Google or share your thoughts here on our page.
Thank you to "Toby's" owners for taking the time to give us this great review.
August is itchy pet awareness month for good reason!
If your pet is bothered by itchy skin, or if you are bothered by your pets incessant licking and chewing, give us a call! We have several things that will help both of you survive this! (610) 593-6132
MIss Lucy makes us think about how much we've enjoyed the Paris Olympics.
What are you going to miss most about the Olympics? For me its the sportsmanship, the lifelong commitment by the athletes to a sport and the culmination of that commitment. The stories of what the athletes and their families have been through has been astonishing.
Let us know what your thoughts are!
My favorite activity is playing with my cousin cooper!.
We love a happy ending, don’t you?
Meet “Murphy” & “Shay”.
These 2 appeared as strays, just when the property owner ( our client ) had an unexpected “windfall” from the Zoetis rewards program- if you’re not enrolled in this, ask us! It’s worth it.
Isn’t it funny how that happens? A windfall and then an expense….🤨💲🤷♀️
Anyway- these 2 came in to be checked for microchips, got cleaned up and vaccinated, and are now living their BEST life!

In honor of National Pet Day and our technician Kayla’s last day, here is a video she made this week. We’ll miss you, Kayla!

Willie Nelson making his way out of recovery to his own tunes!
Willie Nelson was here for surgery today, the surgery team played country music’s favorite during the procedure. Here he is heading back to his kennel after surgery. The voice in the background is none other than Nurse Jodi.
It was a busy year, too much to fit into 1 min and 15 sec!😳🤣 Thanks to all of our clients for a wonderful 2023.
Santa spent some time with us and our patients. As always, a fun time was had!
