Community Events
Our interests reach farther than veterinary medicine, into the world of human medicine and disease. In 2008 several of our team members participated in the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer 3-Day Walk in Atlanta. Among the team were Receptionists, Technicians, and Veterinarians. Dr. Joe Gaston helped sponsor each team member for this important fundraiser. Below are just a few images from this event.

Holiday Mail for Heroes Campaign 2009
Dr. Gaston and the staff at both clinics participated in the campaign to collect greeting cards and gifts to be sent to our troops serving overseas. Among our activities we collected over 40 holiday cards that were mailed to the trroops via the Red Cross. Some of our clients also donated gift bags filled with cookies and coffee supplies to be shipped to our servicemembers who are away from their loved ones this holiday season.
We want to thank our clients and staff for reaching out to our troops this holiday, letting them know they are in our hearts and telling them how much we appreciate the sacrifices they've made to keep our country safe.
