Hello my name is Krystal and I am a veterinary assistant at Plymouth Veterinary Hospital. I am an animal lover!  I had pets my entire life and now I am the owner of two pets; my cat Prince and my bearded dragon Rex.  My lizard rules the house because my cat is afraid of him.  My #1 priority is making sure pets get all the care they need to live a healthy life.  That is why I enjoy making sure patients get all the attention they need at Plymouth Veterinary Hospital.  I was a straight 'A' student in high school and now I am on my way to becoming a veterinary technician in the future.

 

My name is Erin and I am a veterinary assistant at  Plymouth  Veterinary  Hospital. I was so excited when I was asked to become part of the wonderful team here at  Plymouth Veterinary  Hospital. I graduated from  Michigan  State  University in 2006 with a Bachelors degree in Communications. After working in management for four years my career goals changed and I discovered my true passion was working with and helping animals. Currently I am working to fulfill requirements to apply to the  College of  Veterinary Medicine at  Michigan  State University. I live in  Livonia and grew up with dogs my whole life. Although I do not currently have any pets I look forward to one day having a dog of my own.
