This week on The Passionate Pawedcast, we're shining a spotlight on the heartbeat of the hospital—the veterinary assistant!🐾 In “All About AVA,” we’re joined by Approved Veterinary Assistants Lee Lampkin and Maribel Mejia-Duran, who share their unique journeys, the role of AVA accreditation, and the vital work they do every day in patient care. From wrangling patients with care to keeping the clinic running smoothly, Lee and Maribel give us a behind-the-scenes look at what it really means to be a veterinary assistant—and why the title carries so much meaning.
