“Paws Up” – Brought to you by the PVM Wellness Committee

Portrait of Dr. John Christian

This week we express our sincere appreciation for Dr. John Christian, an esteemed associate professor of veterinary clinical pathology and the director and section chief of the Clinical Pathology Laboratory. As he embarks on a well-deserved retirement, we want to commend Dr. Christian and highlight his invaluable efforts with the PVM Wellness Committee over the years. His steadfast commitment to students and the broader PVM community has been a source of inspiration and a beacon of positivity for all of us, and the uplifting words he hangs outside his door each week will surely be missed. We extend our heartfelt best wishes to him for a fulfilling and joyful retirement!

Fostering a healthy work environment involves expressing appreciation and gratitude. Is there someone you would like to acknowledge today? It’s easy to make a Paws Up submission – just follow this link
