OUR TEAM
Tyler
Clinic Cat
Tyler is the longest serving member of our team. A former shelter cat, Tyler had a very severe case of stomatitis, which resulted in him needing a full-mouth extraction, laser therapy, and immunosuppressive medications.
​
Now 19 years old, Tyler can usually be found sleeping in one of his many beds, cardboard boxes or baskets behind the reception desk.
Chip
Human Resources
Chip was discovered in a ditch by a Good Samaritan at 4 months old. The young pup had sustained two broken hind legs, was emaciated, full of worms and was left to die.
​
He was transferred to EAH and underwent multiple procedures to repair his fractures. He immediately bonded with Dr. Rocheleau who ended up adopting him. He comes to work with Dr. Rocheleau every day and enjoys greeting clients and barking at delivery trucks.
