Celebrating Emalee Bates: A Bright Future in Veterinary Medicine

We are incredibly proud to recognize one of our own, Emalee Bates, for an outstanding academic and professional milestone! Emalee graduated from Cedar Valley College on May 15th, earning her Associate’s Degree in Veterinary Technology.
Her hard work and dedication were recognized in a special way—Emalee was one of only three students to receive an Academic Excellence Award, and she was honored with a Littmann Stethoscope, provided by Vetcor.
Emalee is now preparing to take her VTNE (Veterinary Technician National Exam) this August, and we couldn’t be more excited to cheer her on in this next step toward becoming a licensed veterinary technician.
Join us in congratulating Emalee on this remarkable achievement! We are so lucky to have her as part of the Lantana Animal Hospital family.
