Last week I traveled for work to Chicago to support the opening of a brand-new state-of-the-art veterinary emergency hospital. Another Marketing team member and I drove to different referral partners (this is what we call veterinary practices that refer patients to MedVet's emergency and specialty hospitals) around Chicago. We told the staff about our new… Continue reading Sharing the news of MedVet Chicago’s brand-new hospital on Facebook and LinkedIn
