Guadalupe Garciadelacrus
Hello or Hola! My name is Guadalupe Garcia and I’ve been with the BCVC team for almost 2 years now. As a little girl I worked with animals with my dad not knowing that it would be what would inspire me to get my Associate’s to become a great vet tech. I love hiking, going to the gym, and spending time with my family. I am also bilingual so I’m able to help if there’s ever a language barrier. Come stop by!

Hello, my name is Daniel, and I am a Surgical Assistant here at BCVC. Born In Russia, raised primarily in America, and moved to Colorado back in 2015. I enjoy working here with my colleagues and taking care of our patients. I have a dog named Leia that I love, and she brings me great joy. What brought me to work here was the fact that I would be working with animals and making a difference. I am an empathetic person who gives what I can to make someone smile and always do my best to stay positive. A few activities I enjoy are driving, hiking, hanging with friends, and listening to music.
