Dr. Andrea Tu from Park East Animal Hospital in New York City was recently featured in an article by Cornell's College of Veterinary Medicine, where she graduated in 2010. The article outlines her focuses since graduating and her goals for the future. Great article, Dr. Tu!

Emma is an eleven year old female spayed Labrador who presented to High Peaks Animal Hospital on November 29th with a two day history of inappetance and lethargy. She also had a non-productive cough of three weeks duration. No S/D/V. She has been drinking small amounts of water and urinating and defecating normally. The owners recently switched her food from O/M to Purina.

Dr. David Puerto, of the Center for Animal Referral and Emergency Services (CARES) in Langhorne, PA did a mass removal on Friday requiring a thoracodorsal axial pattern skin flap graft to close the defect. Over the weekend the flap became extremely black/congested, due to adequate arterial supply to the flap, but poor venous drainage. In attempt to save the flap/graft leeches were employed to drain the site.

Doctor Harre has a very kind and positive attitude. That was really show cased when we were down a doctor and Dr. Harre worked 10-12 hours a day 6 days a week while looking to fill the position. She goes above and beyond when duty calls. She stays late to finish up with clients and make sure her medical records are accounted for. Doctor Harre does this without any complaints and a smile on her face. Coolridge Animal Hospital really appreciates all that she does on a daily and ongoing basis to help our practice run.

A lab puppy presented with vomiting and a hard lump in the abdomen. No brainer on the foreign body, but what it was, was very surprising.
