Five Things We’re Thankful For

A little over five years into ownership of the Concord Animal Hospital, and Dr. Wilson and I (Katherine Wilson) are reflecting on the journey we’ve taken with our team. With Thanksgiving approaching during a year like no other, here are five things we’re grateful for:

PictureOur team of Veterinarians, who are supported by almost 20 Technicians & Client Service Representatives
  1. Our team: we work with an incredible team of professionals and we’re grateful for them every day. Across our team of 27 people (27!), all are smart, compassionate, and fun to work with. We feel great about the medicine this team delivers plus we like to be around each other! When the pandemic hit this spring, our team strapped on their masks, adopted more stringent sanitation protocols, and our hospital never closed for a day. We feel incredibly proud to be a part of this team!
  2. Our patients: so veterinary medicine isn’t just playing with puppies and kittens all day. Just some of the day! Plus we get to snuggle our super seniors and pets of all ages in between. No matter what’s going on in the world or what kind of day you’re having, it’s hard not to smile when a goofy lab rolls over for a belly rub, a feisty cat goes for your shoelaces, or you get to hang out with a couple of adorable chinchillas. We are grateful that our job is keeping pets healthy and that we get to enjoy your pets while they are here to visit us.
  3. Our clients: our team can’t do our job without the partnership of our clients, you the pet owners. Your trust and partnership allow us to do our job well and make our job so satisfying. We’re also incredibly grateful for your confidence in our team while we remain “curbside” during the pandemic . We are asking a lot of you to trust us to take your pet inside for appointments without you. We are particularly thankful to those of you who are new to us and have never met your pet’s doctor in person. Thank you all for being so amazing always but especially in 2020!
  4. Our new building: we are thrilled that our team of contractors and architects was able to get us into our new building three months early in the middle of a pandemic. It was just in time too. Not only is the building beautiful, but it’s also larger and better ventilated so our team is safer working here. With so many people adopting new pets, we have the exam space to continue to accept new patients while still being able to serve our existing patients for wellness and sick visits.  
  5. Working together: when we told people that we, a husband and wife team, were going to purchase an animal hospital and run it together, a lot of people had dire predictions for our relationship. Eek! Fortunately, we really love working together. This past spring and summer we both cut back our hours so that one of us could be home with our two young children while they were out of school – Dr. Wilson and I loved the extra time with our kids but missed working together at CAH! Now that our kids are back in school for part of the time we have a few hours where we overlap and we love it.  

​During a challenging year we have a lot to be thankful for. We hope you are also able to find your silver linings during this Thanksgiving. From all of us at CAH, we wish you and your families (including the furry family members!) have a safe and happy Thanksgiving!
