Hi, my name is Susan. I have been in the veterinary field for around 35 years, and caring for animals has truly been a lifelong passion of mine. Over the years I’ve had the privilege of working with many different kinds of animals, and each one has reinforced why I love this profession so much. I believe every animal deserves compassion, patience, and the best care possible. Throughout my career I’ve treated countless pets and supported their families through both happy moments and difficult times. Outside of work, I have also shared my home with many pets of my own, which makes my connection to the animals and their owners even more meaningful.

As a RVT, I love helping animals feel safe and comfortable during their visits. From assisting in surgery to monitoring anesthesia and supporting recovery, I enjoy being part of every step that helps pets heal and thrive. I’m passionate about making sure every patient receives gentle, compassionate care. When I’m not at the clinic, I enjoy spending time with my own pets and my family.

There is always something new to learn and experience. My favorite breed of canines are German Shepherds because they are great companions and fierce leaders, they really represent the type of person I am.
