I'm sure that many of you by now have met Casie Turner. She has been with us since 1993 and is a valued member of our full time staff. When not at work, Casie manages to stay busy with her daughter Mason who participates in barrel racing, five horses,three goats,a potbellied pig, five dogs, three cats and a gerbil! Casies primary responsibility has been as surgical assistant and lab technician. How many of you know that Casie has been working steadily and diligently on her certification as a licensed veterinary technician? Starting in 2004 Casie began a course of online study through the Cedar Valley Community College towards earning her Veterinary Technician degree. This will enable her to become an even more valuable member of our team. She has worked hard on courses such as anatomy, physiology, pharmacology, infectious diseases and parasitology to name just a few! Under the guidance of our doctors, Casie has successfully completed the majority of her coursework and will be taking a preliminary licensing exam on January 18th. Please join us in congratulating Casie when you see her in the office on her dedication and hard work. This is a tremendous achievement and we are all very proud of her.
