🩺 Hey {{FirstName|there}}...
Today is a good day. The referral vet answered on the first call, your next patient leaned in for the ear check instead of away, and the ten-minute gap in the schedule somehow stayed yours.

And as always...please take care of yourself; you deserve it, and if you can, someone else too 🤗

It starts with great coffee and only gets better from there, thanks to a border collie with news to share, a team that's remarkably diverse but just gels, and friends who proudly tell complete strangers what he does. Spend the day with him. You'll recognize more of it than you expect, and your own memories will come flooding back...
