Maybe, an adorable Australian Shepherd Mix came to see us last year as a puppy after experiencing a cat scratch injury to her right eye. Unfortunately the injury was severe and we needed to perform an enucleation (removal of the eye). She healed beautifully and was back to normal puppy play two weeks later!

Today, Maybe surprised us with a visit. She is doing amazing, is full of s***k, and about to celebrate her first birthday this Summer. We ♥️ you Maybe!

A valentine from OforA ♥️
••••
Through the eyes of a pet,
you can see their soul.
Unconditional love
and a heart that glows.

They love us no matter what,
which is why we always need to show up.

For their needs and their care
and to lovingly help their cornea repair.

All pets deserve comfortable eyes
and a happy pet is the prize.

We love our patients, big and small
and will give our best to them all!

Let’s prep for the holidays! This is a busy time of year and though we always hope for a stress free and fun holiday season, it’s important to have a plan for any unexpected veterinary needs.
••••
In order to help you prepare, make sure you have plenty of prescribed medications, have alerted your animal care team of any needed prescriptions, and know your local 24HR emergency and poison control contact information. If you have a loved one or pet sitter taking care of treatment, make sure they have clear instructions and access to support.
••••
For our local clients, please save the numbers provided above and make sure to contact the office prior to 12/23 with medication and prescription needs. We are happy to provide treatment sheets for pet sitters or care givers for a smooth transition. We hope everyone has a safe and joy filled holiday season. 🎄 🐾 ♥️

This week is National Veterinary Technician Week! We have been highlighting one of our amazing each day. Today we want to celebrate our lead technician and RVT, JODI⭐️

She has experience with multiple specialities including oncology, internal medicine, cardiology, surgery, and emergency medicine. Jodi has been a vital part of our OforA team since 2021 and provides excellent patient care. Jodi is a fast thinker, problem solver, supportive leader, and compassionate animal lover. We are so grateful for her wealth of knowledge and dedication to our patients and clients!

This week is National Veterinary Technician Week! We have been highlighting one of our amazing each day. Today we want to introduce and give a big shout out to JENNIFER⭐️
••••
Jennifer graduated from Foothill College’s Veterinary Technology and received her RVT (Registered Veterinary Technician) license in 2024. Prior to working in veterinary medicine, she spent 22 years as a professor of economics in Iowa. Jennifer and her husband moved to California in 2021 which gave her the opportunity to pursue her long-time dream of becoming an RVT.
••••
Jennifer joined our team in September and already knows that she loves veterinary ophthalmology! She also has interests in anesthesia/ analgesia and veterinary dentistry. We are so lucky to have her as part of our OforA family. She is incredibly kind and compassionate and her love for animals and connection with our clients create a welcoming and positive treatment experience for all.
