Where did you go to school?

I graduated from the University of Minnesota College of Veterinary Medicine in 2024.

What do you pride yourself in when it comes to veterinary medicine and/or taking care of your patients?

I pride myself on providing compassionate, individualized care to each patient while building strong relationships with their families. My goal is to ensure that both pets and their owners feel comfortable, informed, and supported throughout their visit.

What do you like to do outside of work?

Outside of work, I enjoy baking, cooking, sewing, and spending time with friends and family.

Any other information you would like to add to your biography, like a fun fact about yourself?

My household is ruled by two dogs, Mojo the English Pointer and Mabel the Cane Corso.

Megan (LVT)
I grew up in this clinic! I have been in the industry for 10 years. I went to school at Argosy University. I have strong empathy and work ethic with my patients and clients. I try to make visits fun and happy, even with our sad days. Animal dentistry is my favorite part of being a tech!

I’m usually relaxing with a good video game, love food, gardening, and fishing. Are naps considered a hobby?

Fun fact about me is that I am a massive Pokémon nerd and have an embarrassingly huge collection to prove it.

I graduated from the Medical Institute of MN in 1995 and I’ve been with Animal Medical Center for 21 years. It’s important to me to have a good work ethic and to value the pet owners as well as the patients. I take pride in my technical skills and my devotion to our animal hospital.

When I’m not at work, I love to mountain bike, paddleboard, play pickleball and spend time with family.

Some fun facts about me would be that I have hiked the Grand Canyon and I’ve completed 3 half marathons.

Lisa (CSR)
I have been in the industry for 22 years. I am the friendly face and comforting voice you hear when you call or come to the clinic.

I enjoy helping people on the phone who are extremely worried about their pets, problem solve through the anxiety and figure out if this situation is emergent or not. I also enjoy recognizing and greeting people by name, and knowing their pets’ names. I love the small-town family friendly vibe in our clinic.

I enjoy biking, hiking, paddle-boarding, working in the yard and decorating my house.
Holiday (Resident Cat)
I was found at the Holiday gas station over the holidays in 2013, hence the name, and I’ve lived at Animal Medical Center ever since.

I take pride in being a good clinic cat because I don’t try to escape or bother our patients.

My favorite things to do are watch leaves blow by the front door, drink out of the faucet, and stare at my food dish.

A fun fact about me is that the only person I truly love is the UPS driver!
