Spring 2013 Newsletter

Spring is finally here and with it comes change. We here at Pleasant Valley Pet Clinic are experiencing our own growing pains, and wanted to fill everyone in on what's been going on!

*As many of you know, we have outgrown our current space here in the shopping center known as Pleasant Valley Square. Dr. Jackett felt that it was time to grow our space, allowing us to expand our capabilities to add services she feels would benefit our patients. Dr. Jackett has chosen the property across the street, formerly Ace Rental Place, to build a new hospital. After many months of wading through the county process, we are on the cusp of breaking ground. You should be seeing activity on the lot by June! We will keep you posted on the progress via our web site!

 *That leads us to introduce the launch of our new website  http://pleasantvalleypetclinic.com      

We are excited to bring you a fun and informative new website that includes pet pictures(Maybe YOUR pet will be featured), staff and service information, educational handouts and videos, a printable "First Aid Kit" and much more! As an added feature, we are also pleased to offer our new web pharmacy- Home shopping with internet pricing! Another great feature on our website is our Promotions page. Here you will find all ongoing and special promotions, so check back often! P.S- You can find us on Facebook too! We encourage you to log onto our Facebook page and post your favorite pet pictures!

 *Most recently, we have had some staffing changes. We are sad to report that due to an ongoing medical condition, Dr. Sellers is currently on an extended leave of absence. We wish her well! If you have come in on Wednesday in the last few weeks, then you have already met Dr. David Johnson. We welcomed him to our team several weeks ago, and the staff loves him! He is already making friendships with some of our clients who have had the pleasure to see him. Want to know more? Check our website for his bio, or stop in on any Wednesday to meet him! And sadly, Dr. Carlson has decided to move on to the next phase of her career by gaining experience with other doctors and hospitals. We will miss her and wish her all the best. During this transition, you will see Dr. Jackett here a little more often! We appreciate your understanding as we look for an equally capable replacement for Dr. Carlson, whose shoes will certainly be hard to fill! During the next few weeks, you may meet some of the candidates for the job as we have them come through for working interviews. If you happen to meet one of the candidates, feel free to give us your opinion! We are looking forward to welcoming an experienced, compassionate and fun new person to our Team!

*Over the years, many of you may remember some our hospital cats that have graced us with their presence. We recently welcomed a new guy! He is a very laid back and sweet brown tabby and we’ve named him Rupert. He seems to enjoy being here at the clinic and socializing, and has brought much joy and laughter since he’s been with us. He is also a traveling cat, as he spends his weekends going between the homes of the staff members!

Whether you are new to our family, or have been with us for many years, we want to thank you for your support. Feel free to discuss any concerns you may have. We value the relationships that we have cultivated over the years, both with our clients and their pets, and we thrive on that trust and love.
