My favorite part about my job is getting to meet all the new faces of our clients and pets while ensuring they get the care that they deserve. Our staff is very kind and helpful, which makes it a wonderful environment to be a part of each and every day. I have never met more compassionate and honest doctors than those who we have on our team, and I am grateful for the care they give to our clients.

Working for Finchville has helped me grow tremendously in my career as a vet assistant. Getting to work hands on with many different species has expanded my knowledge of animal welfare & animal husbandry that I get to carry with me & keep in my toolkit. Working with Dr. Lane and Dr. Gregory has only encouraged me to continue my education and better myself as a person, employee, and educator.
