Our veterinary nurses are veterinary assistants and Certified Veterinary Technicians. The CVT’s have completed a two year associate degree program and have passed their Veterinary Technician National Examination. The CVT’s are the only nurses to monitor our surgical patients. Not all veterinary hospitals require this level of certification, but we believe this education is invaluable and that your pet deserves this level of care.
