This week’s ‘Thumbs Up’ recipients

Krista Anderson, Kirsten Koontz and Marty Hitchcock

I want to extend my sincere appreciation to Krista, Kirsten (both Administrative Services) and Marty (Operations and Maintenance) for their outstanding support in getting our equipment at the Small Animal, Farm Animal and Equine hospitals submitted into SAP. Their willingness to answer questions, coordinate meetings and provide guidance made the process smooth and efficient. Beyond their technical expertise, I especially appreciate their forward-thinking approach in considering how this data will be utilized by both technicians in the field and management. Their attention to detail and commitment to ensuring the system is as effective as possible will give us even more tools to provide excellent service to our equipment and, ultimately, our customers. — Cody Hart (Operations and Maintenance)
