Faculty and Staff
Our highly trained team consists of veterinarians who are diplomates of the American College of Veterinary Emergency and Critical Care or the American College of Internal Medicine and nurses who are also specialty trained in emergency and critical care. Members of our team are active members in the Veterinary Emergency and Critical Care Society, the American College of Veterinary Emergency Critical Care, and the Academy of Veterinary Emergency Technicians. Our ECC team members are in constant demand to share their expertise via speaking engagements locally, regionally, nationally, and internationally. We participate in veterinary clinical trials and collaborate with medical professionals in all disciplines (including human medicine) which allows us to offer cutting edge treatment options to our patients.
