Our Staff

Jourdan, Lead Veterinary Technician

My name is Jourdan! I've wanted to be in the field since I was 3, and I started working at a mixed animal practice when I was 16. I received my CVA at 17. I spent the next 3 1/2 years in the Army as a vet tech, working closely with military working dogs. After my discharge, I worked in emergency medicine, and have spent the last 2 years as an ICU nurse. My husband and I recently moved back home to our home state, Florida. I'm fear-fear certified, and have a lot of passion for patient care. On my day off, you'll find me reading, crocheting, or kayaking. We share our home with 2 cats ( Dumbledore & Penelope), an Aussie named Roxanne, and a weimaraner named Winston. One fact about me is I used to show livestock, and even received my American Degree from the FFA. My goal is to finish my Education degree to teach the next generation of Veterinary professionals.

I'm Gabe. I have been working in the veterinary field for over 12 years. I originally started as a sign holder for a veterinary clinic dressed as "Clifford" the big red dog.

I have a wife with four beautiful children along with a one year old cat named snow. I'm an avid basketball fan (boston celtics fan) and I hope to continue what I love to do for many more years assisting our furry friends and providing the best medical quality care they need.
