Congratulations to Sarah Higgins!

January 13th, 2009

We at Rancho Santa Fe Veterinary Hospital pride ourselves in furthering the education of the general public and our employees within the arena of animal health. As such, we’ve had no qualms about hiring employees who seek to become veterinarians or nurses, knowing that the efforts we take would eventually lead to their departures.

And since we’ve opened our practice three years prior, we’ve sent away Kristi Hulme who is now a sophomore at Cornell Veterinary School, and Brianna Welch who is attending Ross University School of Veterinary Medicine as a freshman.

And without further ado, we would like to congratulate Sarah Higgins for her acceptance to Cornell Veterinary School for Fall of 2009!

A New Year, Best Wishes, and a Warm Welcome

January 3rd, 2008

First, a happy New Year to you all!

In 2007 we weathered catastrophic fires, flooding within our hospital, and blistering heat. Still, our firefighters prevailed, and our make-shift flood-management personnel / staff saved our hospital from disaster. Here’s to hoping for a kinder, gentler 2008.

But first some sad news. Dr. Stephen Long, who has been with us since we opened our hospital in December 2005 will be leaving at the end of January. He’ll be moving back to the East coast with his family to explore new opportunities. We certainly wish him the best.

However, joining us in February is Dr. Sophie Steele, a previous co-owner and doctor at Shadowridge Veterinary Hospital. She completed her undergraduate and veterinary degrees at UC Davis and has been practicing for over 5 years. As a former co-worker with Dr. Deirdre Brandes, we’re very happy to have Dr. Steele join our team. More about Dr. Steele coming soon! Read more…
