January President’s Notes
Dear Members,
I hope everyone had a wonderful New Year celebration and is looking forward to a happy and prosperous 2025!
I would like to start by thanking Dr. Nicole Ewing for leading us as an organization in 2024! I know we all appreciate her hard work in delivering top quality speakers for our CE. I love that we have been able to continue to attend meetings remotely to fit into our busy schedules and attend all of Collin and Dallas County VMAs with our Platinum Membership. I will continue to work hard to keep our organization current and vital as Dr. Ewing has done such an amazing job this past year.
I have been working to provide an exciting schedule of CE for 2025! In January we will start with Stephanie Cook, DVM, Diplomate, American College of Veterinary Radiology from Veterinary Specialists of North Texas. She will be presenting Radiation Therapy: A Surprisingly Versatile Cancer Treatment Option. I am excited to learn more about how we can better utilize this therapy in our real world practices to help our patients. I know we all appreciate VSNT for both their expertise and their sponsorship.
I have many varied topics this year ranging from a presentation from UT Southwestern and their new Veterinary Research and Oncology Clinic to help with dentistry. I hope you enjoy all of the topics we have coming this current year.
Please help me in welcoming our newest board member Dr. Victoria Kilianski! I look forward to working with her this year.
I would also like to recognize and show our appreciation to Mandy Ricketts, our Executive Secretary for the TCVMA. She has been the cornerstone of our organization for 20 years. I know we couldn’t do it without her! Please show her some love and thanks when you see her next!
As always please feel free to reach out to the TCVMA with any questions or comments. Don’t forget, current TCVMA fees are due and can be paid on our website: www.tcvma.com. We appreciate all of you and look forward to a new year of learning together!
