Assistant Practice Manager

I have worked with animals for over 16 years. Every day no matter how challenging has been worth it. I started working with animals in a boarding kennel where I was trained as a basic groomer for about 4 years. I then started working for Southeast Alaska Animal Medical Center. Over the last 12 years I have worked in most of the support positions available, leaving me with a unique outlook and ability to help all of our staff, clients and our patients. I strive to improve our clients and patients experiences as well as helping our staff maintain a healthy work life balance.

Veterinary Technicians and Technicians Assistants
|
Our support staff is a dedicated and talented team. The technicians and assistants at Southeast Alaska Animal Medical Center are highly skilled. We draw blood, take dental and full body x-rays, perform lab tests, sterilize instruments and monitor anesthesia amongst other medical tasks. Always at the ready to support our veterinarians, we provide much of the hands on care your pet receives while hospitalized. For us, patient care is why we entered this field. We can also provide services like nail trims, nutritional counseling, whelping support and fluid therapy..

Medical Receptionists |
Annissa

The medical reception team at Southeast Alaska Animal Medical Center strives to make your visits to our hospital the best possible. Receptionists will help you schedule appointments, answer medical questions and can even help you renew your city canine license. We will ensure that your pharmacy refills are available on the same day that they are requested. We can also prep your medical records for travel or referral within minutes of your request. When weight is a concern, come by to use our scale and a receptionist will keep up with the numbers in your chart. We strongly encourage “happy” vet visits to help your pet feel relaxed in our office. Just stop by during regular office hours for some praise and treats from our team.
