It is with a great deal of
sadness that we must announce the departure of our partner, colleague
and friend, Dr. Barry David. As many of you will know, Dr. David has
been going through a very challenging personal situation that ultimately
left him uncomfortable continuing to reside in Central Virginia. Though
this decision to leave the Blue Ridge family and the many wonderful
clients and friends he has established here has been very difficult, it
seems best for him to move on with a fresh start. To that end, Barry
has taken a job with a fine practice in Ocala, Florida where he starts
March 3.
We know that you will join us in thanking him for his many years
of dedicated service to the Virginia horse community. His tenure here has been
marked by exceptional dedication to maintaining the highest standards of care
with a compassionate personal touch. We wish him a long and happy career.
Despite the loss, we remain committed to providing an
exceptional medicine service. In Dr. Norman we are fortunate to have an
internist with outstanding expertise. She will be in charge of the service
until a replacement for Dr. David has been secured.
