Bob - Our Resident Cat When you finally meet our beloved kitty, you will fully understand why he gets top billing. Sometimes he is the first one to say hello to you if everyone else is helping another client or patient. He sits on top of the computer, just waiting to be petted. He has been here for more than ten years and would not want to be anywhere else since being rescued. If you are allergic to cats, just let us know. We will put a note on our computer system so that we can secure him as soon as you walk in. Because when he walks up to you, he is only trying to do his job! Some clients still drive 30 minutes just to visit with him. |

Joey Robinson - Veterinary Technician Four years ago, Joey spent a year of internship with us under PESH's veterinary technology program. Spending hours of fun petting puppies instead of sitting in the classroom must have been like heaven for him. Of course he also had to take out the trash, wash dishes, and eventually collect blood samples, etc. The volumes of books and training videos the doctor made him study was not as enjoyable as puppy-time. But he persevered and worked hard; and now he is really one of us. He turned out to be a natural-born leader and helps the next generation of senior high school students complete their clinical rotations to prepare them for a rewarding career in pet care or agriculture. He has since trained 3 students: one is now an Aggie, another is in Quad-C and Clarissa is on her way to graduation. Joey plans to become a veterinarian. He has several Dachshunds and Chihuahuas. |

Hector Carbonell, DVM - Chief-Of-Staff "Dr. C" has close to 20 years of veterinary experience. He received post-doctoral training at Cornell University, a leader in pet care, education and cutting-edge technology. Together with wife Jessica and two fast-growing kids, they share their home with 3 pets. The family enjoys music, swimming, and community activities. Life can also revolve around the kitchen. They actively support at least 6 local school PTA's, all surrounding animal shelters, and humane rescue groups (Operation Kindness and Second Chance Dalmatian Rescue in particular). Not taking anything for granted, Dr. Carbonell feels fortunate to be a part of the community he serves. Being a former "country doctor", his staff strives to make you feel at home. You will find that this city-practice has a down-to-earth approach. The hospital prides itself of being able to handle stubborn skin and eye diseases. He is also trained and equipped for bone and soft-tissue surgeries as well as dental procedures. Countless pets have been given a new lease on life with his practical approach to everyday problems. |
