Veterinary medicine became an interest of Deb's after many years of giving care to an assortment of pets; several black Labs, a Great Dane, numerous cats and various farm animals- including horses, chickens, cows, and ducks.
Deb attended the veterinary assistant program at QVCC in 2010. When learning her teacher was to be the veterinarian at the Woodstock Veterinary Clinic, scheduled to reopen its doors in August 2011, she was determined to work along side this doctor. And so began her career at WVC. She brought with her over 25 years of business management experience and found a passion in her daily work life that she had never experienced. The pressures from the daily grind tend to be taken away by the joy of a loving animal. Many years later, this passion remains strong, and a puppy or kitten always brings a smile to her face.
Fondly known by the staff as "Mother Hen", Deb takes her responsability of team management to heart. She works diligently to keep her flock of "chicks" and a rooster or two, as content as possible. A happy team creates an enjoyable workplace.
Deb lives in Woodstock with her husband, her two Great Danes, Liberty and Justice, and her elderly cat, Penelope, aka "Little P", who rules all.
