Last week several Safe Place Board members toured Colorado Canine
Orthopedics as well as the ER Clinic and the Internal Medicine Clinic. We were
there to present Dr. Bauer of Canine Orthopedics with a plaque in gratitude and
appreciation for all he has done for many of the animals we have worked
with. As for the tour, suffice it say
that the three facilities are definitely state of the art and state of the heart.
Speaking with Dr. Bauer, Dr. McReynolds
and PS Fournier, Marketing, it was obvious that giving back is at the core of
their mission. Seeing the OR’s, ICU, chemotherapy and recovery areas as well as
other highlights it was just as apparent that they believed in investing in
cutting edge technology in order to give their patients the best chance at a
full recovery. In fact, I had to fight the urge to ask if they might consider
taking a look at my gimpy left hip!
It is comforting to know that these professionals are in our
community should one of our pets need specialized care. We do our best for them but stuff does
happen.
