Saving the Lives of Animals
Saint Germain Caterers is committed to saving the lives of animals. Starting August 1, 2005, Saint Germain Caterers will contribute a portion of its profits to the Matthew J. Ryan Veterinary School of the University of Pennsylvania. Through this ongoing gift, Saint Germain is excited to be able to fund the Jack Ebrahimi Program for Interventional Endoscopic and Radiologic Diagnostics and Therapeutics at the University of Pennsylvania.
Many of Penn's veterinary specialists are pushing new disciplines forward. This is certainly true of the School's minimally invasive interventional radiology service, the first of its kind to be established at any veterinary teaching hospital in the country. Drs. Chick Weisse and Allyson Berent are pioneers in veterinary medicine, performing minimally invasive medical and surgical techniques for such conditions as cancer, liver disorders, urinary stones, bile duct obstructions, tracheal collapse, and life-threatening nose bleeds.
An established tool in human medicine, interventional radiology has tremendous potential for the treatment of serious maladies in pets. The procedure involves the use of contemporary imaging modalities to gain access to different structures in order to deliver materials for therapeutic reasons. With expert veterinarians like Drs. Berent and Weisse, the veterinary community is acquiring and refining similar procedures to those in human medicine to provide nonsurgical alternatives with decreased morbidity/mortality rates, minimal anesthesia time, shorter hospital stays, and lower costs.
The Jack Ebrahimi Progam for Minimally Invasive Interventional Radiology and Endoscopic Procedures at will provide much-needed philanthropic support to perfect such treatments. Funding this program will help Penn continue as a center of excellence in minimally invasive procedures-as it is in so many other areas-and provide training to veterinarians around the world.
