The staff at NEVH is well trained, and each individual is working with your pet because they truly love animals and enjoy working with them. Staff Buzz gives an informal insight into what is going on in their lives.

• Dr. Carrie Cummings and Dr. Jennifer Nelms attended continuing education courses at the University of Georgia College of Veterinary Medicine in April.  This was Dr. Cummings 5th year class reunion and Dr. Brooks 30th year class reunion. This month, Dr. Brooks studied the zoonotic potential for feline & canine intestinal parasites and the latest developments in the treatment of canine heart worm disease.  These recent classes marked 64 hours of continuing education for Dr. Brooks.  Each doctor at NEVH is dedicated to keeping up to date in all areas of Small Animal Medicine & Surgery.
