Surgery Foursome

Turtle patiens; Elizabeth, Dre, Sylah and Diana had their day with the doctor earlier this week.

Dr Kristen Hall from Marathon Veterinarian Hospital donated her time off to perform 2 endoscope procedures (to determine if there are any internal fibropapilloma tumors)

and two eye surgeries to remove fibropapilloma tumors that can cause blindness.
