January’s Employee Spotlight is shining on our veterinary assistant Lilly — a true rockstar from our overnight team who provides exceptional care to our patients while the rest of us are fast asleep. 🌙✨

Lilly’s journey in animal care began at a doggy daycare, where she quickly realized her deep passion for caring for animals. When the daycare unexpectedly closed, she found her way to ASC and knew she had discovered something special — a place where she could make a meaningful, life-changing impact and truly found her purpose.

One of Lilly’s favorite memories comes from caring for a very anxious (but incredibly sweet) dog recovering from a TPLO surgery. She sat quietly with him, speaking softly and offering gentle reassurance until he finally relaxed enough to rest his head in her lap. That little victory was a reminder of how much patience and compassion truly matter.

Becoming an LVT has been Lilly’s goal since she first entered the veterinary field. She’s currently enrolled in the Penn Foster program, and while balancing work and school isn’t always easy, her determination — paired with the encouragement of her team — keeps her moving forward.

Outside of work, Lilly is a proud pet mom to her dog Marshie and her three cats, Tommi, Chloe, and Peaches. Her own pets have given her a deeper appreciation for the trust our clients place in us. As Lilly puts it, “That perspective motivates me every day to treat every patient as if they were my own.”

Thank you to Lilly and our incredible overnight team for making our patients’ sleepovers safe, comforting, and healing, and for ensuring they continue to recover beautifully through the night. 🐾💙

Christmas Eve is only a few days away, and Lucy is taking her duties as an ASC Christmas elf very seriously! She’s keeping the presents under the tree safe and making sure all the ornaments are sparkling and bright…okay, she’s also waiting patiently for a Christmas treat. Many things can be true at once. 🎄🐾

This month’s standout star is Alicia — one of our OG front desk heroes and one of the sweet smiles behind so many of your phone calls. 📞💛

Alicia began her journey with a Health Science degree from Brooklyn College, not yet realizing that her calling wasn’t in human medicine at all—it was right here in veterinary medicine. And we’re so grateful she found her way to us!

What Alicia adores most about her role is being able to help not only the animals, but also the people who love them. She says, “Being able to reassure owners with confidence that ASC will take the best care of their beloved animals brings me so much joy.”

For nearly four years, Alicia has been the definition of a team player, treating her coworkers like a second family. 
But her greatest challenge? Balancing long shifts with being a full-time superhero mom. After a 13-hour day, she still goes home to give all she has to her family. And on top of being an incredible mom and an essential part of keeping our hospital running—because truly, we couldn’t function without our reception team—Alicia dreams of owning her own food truck someday. (If her cooking is anything like her customer care, we’ll be first in line.)

Alicia says, “We see so many pets and get to witness lots of happy endings. Nothing beats when a client remembers you by name. It makes everything worth it when you receive that warm ‘thank you.’ The donuts aren’t bad either.”

Alicia, thank you for your heart, your dedication, and the brightness you bring to ASC every single day. 💙🐾

One thing about us—we get cuteness aggression to the max. 

Just look at our assistant Taty helping out this precious rescue bulldog…she simply could not resist smushing his big, adorable face and expressing her very intense (and very relatable) love for him.

Some dogs just bring out the “I need to squeeze you!!” energy—and we regret nothing. 🐶🤭

It's getting chilly! 🥶Cold weather can affect your pet's joints, skin, activity, and routines. Here are a few tips to prepare your pet for wintertime:
- Provide a warm and cozy space off of the floor and away from drafts
- Sweaters or jackets are great for short-haired, small or senior pets
- Limit your pet's time outside in the extreme cold
- Some pets' nutrition needs might change during the winter. Talk to your vet if you think this might be the case.

Have questions? We’re always here to help!
