Our Team
Amy Mayhew, LVT, clinical sonographer
After working in a private practice for 2 years, she accepted a job at Oakland Veterinary Referral Services where she was employed for over 15 years.
Carri Underwood, clinical sonographer
Carri has worked in veterinary medicine since 1998 and has since learned every support staff role from reception to assistant, technician, and eventually manager.
Our clinic started working with SVS in 2020, and we really weren't sure what to expect having never done something like this. What we go was extremely professional service with thorough detailed reporting that is often received much faster than we expect. Our clients have enjoyed being able to have these services done within the walls of their "home" clinic and being able to have their cases handled with veterinarians they already have relationships with. If we have had questions on a invoice, or need to get a payment made, they make it smooth and easy! We have used their services more often than we ever expected to and could not have been happier! From a personal standpoint - one of my cats was diagnosed with HCM and we've had 3 studies so far. He isn't exactly the best, and doesn't enjoy being held still. With their help we determined the best sedative options for his future studies to keep his stress levels low and still allow Sarah, the technician, to get the data she needs. She is incredibly patient, thorough, friendly and professional. The reports are extremely thorough, including medication recommendations and sedation restrictions if needed. When we've called to consult for additional questions, they have taken the time to answer them as well. What a great team!
SVS Imaging provides a wonderful mobile ultrasound service. Appointments are easy to book and Sarah promptly returns calls. Being able to keep our patients in clinic instead of having to refer them to a specialty hospital has been ideal. Results are available within 24 hours allowing us to streamline our diagnostics and lets us start treatment for patients sooner.
I have been so happy that we can now have ultrasounds performed on our patients in such a short time. With the high demand for veterinary services and the long wait times to see an internist, having Amy perform ultrasounds has been extremely helpful for patient care. We have a very busy 11-doctor practice, and we all have been very happy with Amy's ultrasound skills, professionalism, and accessibility. I highly recommend Amy to any veterinary practice and will continue to use her services.
Amy Mayhew is amazing! She has fundamentally changed and improved how we practice medicine. We no longer have to wait weeks or months for an opening with a local specialist- we get reports from a boarded specialist within 24-48 hrs and can start treatment immediately. Amy is a knowledgeable and skilled ultrasonographer (both abdominal and cardiac!), and she really cares about our patients. I trust her with two of the most important kitties in my own life- my senior “kittyzen” and our elderly clinic cat!
Amy Mayhew has been a great addition to our practice family. She is punctual, always friendly, and service-oriented. Amy's technical skill is excellent and her care with our patients is outstanding. We would recommend Amy to any veterinary clinic seeking ultrasound services.

Amy is always punctual and professional, and the process is so streamlined it makes working with her actually quite enjoyable. Her response time when requesting a service is out of this world.
