"We can't thank you enough for all you have done for Cooper. Without your skills and compassionate staff, Cooper would have had a very bad alternative. Many thanks to the Society of Endovascular Veterinary Surgery for everything they have donated to help us. Thanks for your time and dedication to giving new lives to animals."

"Miss Muffett and I are both appreciative that she could continue her life by the placement of a stent into her trachea. We want to thank everyone who was responsible for making the stent available to be used in this life threatening situation."

"To the wonderful people at SEVS: I am writing you to let you know how much I appreciate your donations. My dog, Tyler, has been the recipient of your kindness and he is now alive and doing well against many odds. After an ultrasound and some tests found a shunt in his liver, I was crushed. He was only 2 years old and the prognosis was grim. I was told that his chances of surviving surgery were not exactly shining. Instead, Dr. Hardie drove Tyler to Pennsylvania for a new, less invasive procedure. It is just amazing. Tyler is still as wonderful as ever, but it is like he is a new and improved version. The donations you are making mean so very much. I know they mean a lot on a scientific level, but on a more personal level, your donations allowed a loved member of my family to live against a lot of odds."

"We are the proud owners of a 7 year old Yorkshire Terrier named Lacey. As we al realize, pets become part of your family and you seek nothing but the best for them as you would any family member. On a recent trip to her groomer, they noticed an abnormal bulge on her front paw. Dr. Weisse diagnosed Lacey with a rare arterial problem in her front paw called an a-v fistula. Dr. Weisse organized a team of doctors that included Dr. Solomon and Dr. Hurst to perform a delicate procedure that had never been done on a dog. The procedure was successful and our little girl now has regained her normal life. We would especially like to thank Dr. Solomon, Dr. Hurst, and the Society of Endovascular Veterinary Surgery for their time, expertise, and medical materials used in saving our dog from a potentially dangerous situation."

"1 ^1/2 weeks after bringing home bandit, an adorable 8 week old Black lab, he was diagnosed with having a very large intrahepatic liver shunt. Local vets offered no encouragement in pursuing present surgical procedures. One doctor mentioned an experimental surgery. Bandit is now 11 months old and able to have the life we hoped. We need to thank SEVS for their generosity in donating the equipment that made this surgery affordable and ultimately possible for Bandit and other family pets alike. I was given the rare opportunity to see amazing work being done and I strongly encourage SEVS to continue their support through donations of medical equipment and supplies for this procedure as well as any other procedures presently and in the future."
