Lori is an amazing, hardworking employee. She is very reliable and dedicated. Twenty-eight years with our practice is outstanding. Sometimes she puts this job before herself for the love of the animals. She is our head CVT and plays a big part in running our practice.
Lori goes above and beyond whenever needed. She is always making sure patient care is the number one priority. She is always helping where needed even when she has a million things of her own to do. She never says no to anyone and helps train our new CVTs. She even helps when she has already clocked out for the day. She goes to a few elderly people’s houses to care for their pets if they are unable to make it in.
Many reasons. The friendships I make with our patients and their owners. The ability to watch our patients grow from puppy to adult and into their senior years. Being able to help our patients heal following surgical procedures/injuries. Just to name a few.

Murphy, an almost 3-year-old Humane Society rescue cat, Arie, also an almost 3-year-old Humane Society rescue cat, and Raya, a 7.5-year-old Portuguese water dog (we are her third home).
I grew up on a family farm and taking care of animals was my job.
Scrapbooking, taking pictures, camping, spending time at the lake and with my friends and family, and fun days out with my best friend.
I have many but I really enjoy the Chicago Med/Chicago Fire/Chicago PD and the Law & Order series.
