KASSI BOLAND
Kassi is known as “superstar” at our office. That’s because there is not an area where she doesn’t excel. A truly irreplaceable asset to our pet hospital. She and her husband Cody have a farm in Mississippi with a menagerie of horses, goats, chickens, dogs, and cats. Kassi has been with us 9 years now and most clients know her on a first-name basis.
CONNOR WALEN
Connor was for several years a volunteer at our office. Luckily for us, we convinced him to make veterinary medicine a career. Connor is from Michigan and now calls Memphis home. He calls Memphis “other things,” however, during the hot summer months.
Elizabeth Gibson
Elizabeth moved to Jackson, Tennessee from Greenville, South Carolina to attend Union University where she completed her bachelor’s degree in Zoology and Psychology. During her stay here, she spent most of her spare time volunteering for the Raptor Rehabilitation Center. When she isn’t at the clinic, she enjoys rock climbing and spending time with her pets: 2 cats,10 degus, and a dog.
Jackie Glover
An outstanding new addition to our staff! Jackie has an Animal Science Degree from UT-Martin and is current on her veterinary literature, surgery, and clinical techniques. She has also had considerable ICU and ER experience at Memphis Veterinary Specialists. Jackie is from Memphis and loves kitties more than anything but is fond of all the pets we see. Her favorite pastimes are snacking and napping...haha!
