Permit me space in your widely read newspapers to pay tribute to clinical staff who save lives daily, but who do not normally receive public tributes for their devotion to their profession and clients in their care. These are the dedicated staff who work as government veterinarians or in private veterinary clinics.
In particular, my family and I wish to express our heartfelt gratitude to Dr Nicholas Mackenzie, a gifted veterinarian physician and surgeon who owns Pet Life Veterinary Hospital, located at London Street, San Fernando.
Our beloved German shepherd, who is 13 and a half years old underwent surgery on Thursday, May 21. The surgery was successful and the outcome was truly spectacular.
My family and I were impressed with the modern, state of the art facilities at Pet Life Veterinary Hospital, as well as the kindness and expertise of each member of staff who gave our dog a new lease on life. Accolades are also given to Dr Cherise Medford, technicians Mala Samaroo and Renee La Chapelle, as well as to receptionist Jenny Singh. Pet Life Veterinary Hospital offers an upgraded experience for pet owners as well—coffee, water cooler and cable television in the reception room. Thank you Dr Mackenzie and your staff for going above and beyond the call of duty.
