They are involved in all aspects of patient care including radiology, anesthesia, surgical assistance, treatments, monitoring patient condition and comfort, and TLC. They perform all of their tasks with consistent technical competence and sincere care and compassion for each individual patient.

Client liasons - our frontline for client communications

Client liasons Marie Delzoppo and Judy Pierce handle over 100 phone calls daily. They are very knowledgeable about pet care, nutrition, animal resources, and how to handle emergencies. In addition, they organize client information, medical records, laboratory results, patient reminders, and invoices for all our patients.

In veterinary practice, communication extends to numerous venders as well. Our inventory manager takes care of ordering supplies and specialty products for your pets.

Last, but by no means least, our team could not function efficiently without Office Manager Joan Powers. A self-proclaimed "people person," Joan oversees the multitude of non-medical aspects of running a fast-paced, high quality veterinary center.
