✨Happy Wednesday MAH Fam!✨
We want to share news with you all about our wonderful Dr. Murray: After many years of dedicated service, Dr. Murray will be transitioning out of her role at our practice to pursue a new and meaningful path in veterinary medicine—providing in-home end-of-life care for pets and their families.💙 While we will greatly miss Dr. Murray, we fully support this next chapter. Her compassion, skill, and deep commitment to both patients and clients have left a lasting impact on our practice and on so many of you. We are incredibly grateful for the care she has provided and the relationships she has built here over the years.

Our entire team remains committed to continuing the high level of care you and your pets expect. Dr. Cretacci, Dr. Krystek, Dr. Sheridan and our team are here to assist you and we will work closely with you to ensure a smooth and comfortable transition in your pets’ ongoing care. We know that this news may feel bittersweet, but we also know that Dr. Murray has a very bright future ahead. We are proud to see her continue to serve our community in this way. 😊

We hope that you all can celebrate this exciting path for Dr. Murray with us.🎉 We encourage you to stop in and say ‘see you later’ as this is not a goodbye. We anticipate Dr. Murray continuing with us as a relief veterinarian every now and then and we will also still be seeing Ned for his routine care (and to dog-sit him when she needs us to)! Dr. Murray's last day will be Jun 5, 2026. Please help us send her off with all of the love and well wishes, and as always, thank you for your support, your kindness and your trust in our whole team at March Animal Hospital. 💙🐾

A little note from Dr. Murray👩‍⚕️:
Working with all of you and your incredible pets has been equal parts rewarding, chaotic, hilarious and heartwarming. I’ll miss the daily surprises, the teamwork, and of course, all the furry (and occasionally feisty) patients who made every day memorable. Thank you for trusting me with your pets, for the laughs, and for all the moments that reminded me why I chose this profession in the first place. Ned and I are so lucky to have found March Animal Hospital. Our fantastic team, incredible owners and pets with the biggest personalities make saying goodbye so hard. Knowing that all the doctors and staff will continue to offer excellent, compassionate, patient-focused care has eased this transition. Please give your pets an extra treat (or two… I won’t tell) for me. -Dr. Murray 🥰

And of course, a little note from Ned 🐶:
You may know me as the official greeter, part-time emotional support specialist, and full-time treat quality control inspector. While the doctors and staff were busy doing “medical things,” I was focused on the important work- monitoring snacks, supervising incoming patients, and accepting well-deserved attention from all of you.
Please continue to offer treats freely in my absence. -Ned🐕

❗New Service❗

March Animal Hospital now offers In House Ultrasounds, with our very own Dr. Sheridan! 🎉

Ultrasounds are crucial in veterinary medicine because they provide safe, non-invasive, and real-time imaging of soft tissues, internal organs, and cardiovascular structures. Through this imaging, Veterinarians are able to diagnose and address concerns that cannot be seen through normal X-rays. 🩻

Gunnar was the perfect patient for his X-rays, and he definitely enjoyed the belly rubs that followed. 💙🩻

X-rays are an important tool in veterinary medicine because they let us see what’s going on beneath the surface. They help us check bones, joints, and internal organs, spot injuries or abnormalities, and catch problems early...sometimes before pets show any obvious signs.

Gunnar did great, soaked up the love, and earned every single belly rub 🐾
