Modern minimalism: Dr. Margaret Fortier’s DVM360 design award winning clinic

We traveled to Ashburn, Virginia to chat with Dr. Margaret Fortier at her new practice, Goose Creek Veterinary Hospital. Goose Creek Veterinary Hospital has a minimalist aesthetic with personal touches worked in. It starts with her logo, an homage to Greta, a wire-haired dachshund. “Greta was the first love of my life because she was my first dog as an adult. I got her before I went to vet school and she was with me through vet school, failed relationships, marriage and kids. When she passed away, it broke my heart. It’s my tribute to her.”

Pain management: a key component of anesthesia

It’s difficult to have a conversation about anesthesia without including pain management. The concept is so integrated, that the specialty college changed its name in 2012 to the current nomenclature of American College of Anesthesia AND Analgesia (ACVAA). It’s vital to have a pain management plan for any general anesthesia episode where the patient will be exposed to nociceptive stimulation.
