Happy Birthday to the most amazing CVT, Chandra! She is such an incredible person. Her dedication to the patients we work with, their owners, and the clinics we serve is admirable. She introduces levity to her work that brings a smile to all those around her. The culmination of her professionalism, technical ability, communication approach and dedication to teaching makes her one of a kind. But there’s more… She also brings her adventurous spirit and curiosity to everything she engages in. Her love for educating others goes beyond veterinary medicine as she also volunteers her time training firefighters how to address the needs of pets encountered in emergencies and disasters with the non profit Basic Animal Rescue Training. She is the best of the best in her field. I am honored to her as a part of team Veterinary Cardiology Specialists and as a friend. Happiest of birthdays to you Chandra!

This photo embraces the essence of why we, as veterinary professionals, do what we do. Meet Laura and her beloved family member “Patty”. The amazing bond they share is palpable. We have had the pleasure of assisting in the heart health care of “Patty” since March of 2021 when she was noted to have a heart murmur by her primary veterinarian Dr. Teresa Bergh, the owner of Vet Partners Apple Valley . Her comprehensive cardiology evaluation revealed structural heart disease as well as a ventricular arrhythmia. She is currently doing great with her medical therapy. Feeling the love. ❤️🐾
