South Towne Veterinary Hospital

Please join us in wishing Nicole only great things as she leaves us this Friday, 4/22, for the Ross University of Veterinary Medicine on the Caribbean island of St Kitts. Nicole was accepted into their 3 year accelerated program after earning her pre qualification degrees. The doctors and fellow staff members are excited to know she is following her dreams, her passion and compassion for animals. We are all going to miss her smiling face ( behind the mask), sweet personality and her tremendous pride and dedication to her work. Always there for whatever was asked of her. Few have left such an indelible mark on the hospital and our hearts. Fly high Nicole! She believed she could, so she did. Please leave Nicole a message in the comments.
