Congratulations Trisha McLaughlin!!
Trisha McLaughlin, C.V.T. our Practice
Manager was on the October 2006 cover of Veterinary
Technician. There was also an article about her on pages
644-646, along with an The Moment I Knew also on
page 646.
She's on the cover with her Pit Bull Roadie |
Trisha
McLaughlin C.V.T.,
Practice Manager
I was born and
raised in Newtown, PA . I now live in
Warminster, PA with my husband Patrick
and our 4-legged children. Well,
actually one only has 3 legs... Roadie (pitbull), Kira
(pitbull) and Lager (St Bernard) were
all saved/rescued and
our 3 cats.. Jimmy, Killian and
Mowgli (also all rescued). Our first
child was born in December 2004,
Samantha Shea and our second daughter
Makenna joined us March 2008.
I graduated
from Harcum College with my AS in
Veterinary Technology in 1997 and sat
for my state certification the same year
to become a C.V.T. (certified veterinary
technician). I also have taken classes
at Delaware Valley College to finish by
BS and my pre-requisites for Veterinary
school. I, however, started my career
with animals here at Newtown Veterinary
Hospital 19yrs ago when Dr. Guenther was
still the practice owner.
Immediately
after my externship at VHUP, I took a
position in the
emergency room at the University Of
Pennsylvania Veterinary School. After a
few years on the busy overnight shift I
took a job at Veterinary Specialty and
Emergency Center (V.S.E.C.) in
Langhorne. It was there that my passion
for pain management and physical therapy
emerged.
I currently sit on a Technician advisory board for
Bayer Animal Health (B.T.A.C) and I am
also a content editor for Veterinary
Technician magazine. I also have written
articles for Veterinary Technician
magazine on Hydrotherapy. I plan on
attending the University of Tennessee in
March 2010 to start my Animal
rehabilitation certification.
I love that I am part of such a diverse family at NVH.
The opportunity to continue to grow no
matter how long I have been here keeps
life interesting.

Riki Brennan
Office Manager
I have been
with Newtown Veterinary Hospital since
1999. I have been the Office Manager
since 2006. I am in charge of all
the community relations projects at the
hospital. Some of these projects include
coordinating the Annual Pet Fair and all
our community outreach programs (such as
career fairs, dog walks, business
association events and girl scout tours
with the help of Devon one of our
technicians ).
I also edit the monthly newsletter,
update our hospital's website, create
advertisements for the hospital and
create all door prizes and sponsorships
used at local school events. I love
talking to clients and playing with the
dogs (I say hi to cats from a distance,
as I am allergic to them), and hope to
work here for a long time to come.
I have a
Heinz 57 Mutt named Bridget born in
2005, a Cockapoo named Maggie born in
2004 and Annie a Labrador mix born in
2009 all of whom were rescued through NVH. I
love to spend time with them. I relax by
reading books, drawing, watching movies,
and gardening.
Happy 10th
Anniversary Riki 1999 - 2009

Barb Pacitti,
C.V.T.
Technician Administrator
I attended Manor College, the veterinary
technology program, and graduated in 2003 with
my Associate's Degree. I sat for and passed my
certification exam that summer and have been in
this field ever since. I really enjoy working
with animals and trying to help them under the
guidance of a doctor. It is a very satisfying
feeling when you are able to help a being that
is unable to speak and tell you what is
happening to make them feel the way they do.
I started with NVH in September 2003 as a Senior
Surgical Technician and was promoted to
Technician Administrator in the Spring of 2006.
As a Senior Surgical Technician, my
responsibilities include calculating drugs,
inducing anesthesia, intubation of patients,
monitoring EKG Pulse oximiter, blood pressure,
IV catheter placement, recovery of patients and
overall animal care. Along with these duties, as
Technician Administrator, I am also responsible
for the hiring, training, discipline and
scheduling of the Outpatient Technicians, Junior
Technicians and Senior Surgical Technicians.
Being a Manor Grad I have also taken on the
responsibility of hosting externship students.
In this program Vet Tech students come from
Manor College in their last semester to rotate
through our facility and learn hands-on
techniques and how to apply what they have
acquired being in technical school to everyday
teching duties. I have also assisted in teaching
a semester at Manor College. I enjoyed it very
much, but have not had the time to be able to
accomplish this again. I look forward to trying
to fit it into my busy schedule for future
semester if needed.
In my spare time, I like to spend time with my family,
close friends, my son Frankie and my dogs Stella
and Molson. I also enjoy the behavior training
aspect of veterinary medicine and like to help
educate clients and fellow staff members in this
area in my spare time. I have helped with
retraining and placement of dogs in new homes
and also have helped educate clients on what
breeds are appropriate for their households. It
is amazing what a little redirection, retraining
and exercise can do for a dog that is
labeled as destructive or hopeless! It is very
satisfying to me to be able to modify some
unwanted behaviors with positive reinforcement
and placing the dog in the proper home where
they will receive the attention that they need
to keep them in a healthy state of mind.
I have been married since September 2006 and live with
my very understanding and tolerant husband
Frank. I also share a home with my dogs Molson
(who was rescued) and Stella (who I acquired as
a puppy) and of course my son Frankie who has
started to show a large interest in the dogs
since his birth in November 2008. |

Shaunna Craig Surgical
Coordinator
I
have been a Senior Surgical Technician at NVH
since March of 2007. I started working in the
veterinary field in 1992. Prior to working as a
technicians I was part of a 4H program where I
showed sheep, pigs, cattle and horses. Since
working as a technician, I have worked in small
animal and emergency practices. Furthermore, I
participated in Rodeos from 1995 to 2000. Aside
from my work as a veterinary technician I am
also a firefighter, EMT, and a CPR/First Aid/AED
instructor. In addition, I am certified in
animal training and behavior modification. I was
married in 2005 and have a son, Aidan who was
born in 2006 and a daughter, Kiernan born in
2008 . My extended family includes three Basset
Hounds, a Labrador Retriever & German Shepherd Mix, a Doberman,
3
cats and a blue and gold Macaw. |

Laura Bond
Out Patient Coordinator
My
name is Laura and I started at the
practice in May 2006.
When I first came to NVH I started in
kennels. After a few months I began as an
outpatient technician working in
appointments. Now I am the Out Patient
Coordinator for the hospital and a Senior
Surgical Technician. I have been able to
learn so much since coming to work at NVH.
What I appreciate the most about working
here are the people I work with on every
level and the quality of veterinary medicine
that I get to be a part of. Not only do we
have a caring, gentle, and compassionate
staff, but we work together as a team to set
a high standard of care for our patients.
My furry family includes my two black cats Moses and
Sophia... they are perfect!... I am married
and have a baby due to arrive in July 2010. |

Jamie Ereth
Senior Surgical Technician
I began working at NVH in October 2008
as a Senior Surgical Technician. As a Senior my
duties include anesthesia induction and
monitoring patients, recovering animals after
surgical procedures, monitoring EKG, Pulse Ox's,
blood pressure, venipuncture and intravenous
catheter placement, calculating medications,
administering medications and daily treatments.
I moved to Bucks County in September 2008 from
California with my boyfriend David, my Husky
Meiko and my cat Lola. I was born in a small
town in northern CA and raised in the San
Francisco Bay area. I received my A. S. degree
in Veterinary Technology from San Joaquin Valley
College in Fresno CA when I was 22. For the last
2 1/2 years before working at NVH, I worked at
the Veterinary Emergency Clinic in Modesto CA.
During my time there I worked five nights a week
as the sole graveyard technician, It was there I
gained my special interest in Emergency
Medicine, as well specialty training in Critical
Care. I am currently working on becoming a
Certified Veterinary Technician.
On the personal side, Bucks County is worlds different
from where I grew up, however I am truly happy
here and finally feel at home. For fun I like to
draw and paint, read, watch horror movies, spend
time with my family and explore my new home. |

Anne Garfield
Senior Surgical Technician
For
as long as I can remember, I have had a passion
for helping animals. Even as a child, if there
was an injured animal in the yard, I would bring
it inside and try to nurse it back to health. I
even tried to save a butterfly once! At that
time, I didn't know that animal nursing would
turn out to be my career. After high school, I
attended Antonelli Institute of Art and
Photography and graduated with a degree in
commercial art in May of 1997. It wasn't long
after graduation that I realized I preferred to
keep art as a hobby. This is when I found
Montgomery Animal Hospital. I started working
there as a kennel assistant in August of 1998.
Eager to learn more, I left MAH in February of
2000 and began working at the Veterinary
Referral Center in Malvern, PA. This practice
specializes in orthopedic and soft tissue
surgery, ultrasound, cardiology, internal
medicine, dermatology and dentistry. What a
great place to learn! After nine educational
years, I left my position as supervising nurse
of soft tissue surgery to come work as a senior
technician at NVH. I started here on June 1,
2009 and hope to be here for quite some time. I
am very happy to be part of such a great
practice.! |

Hi! I
was born and raised in Northeast Philadelphia.
I've always wanted to work in the veterinary
field. It's my passion. I started working at NVH

high-quality care. I'm looking forward to my
future in the veterinary field.

Ashley Mathiesen
Senior Surgical Technician
I was born in NY and grew up in Las
Vegas. I've spent most of my childhood traveling
between both cities until I finally settled here
in PA. I started out as an Exam Room Technician
in 2001 and through interest and training have
worked my way up to a Senior Surgical Technician. My job
duties include animal restraint, x-rays, blood
withdrawal, monitoring anesthesia and
giving lots of love to our sick and recovering
animal friends while they are here. My interests
in the animal field are in nutrition and
behavior.
I am a proud owner of a Pit Bull born in 2005, her name
is Layla. She was a rescue dog who went from no
collar to a Coach collar!
I am expecting my first child in July 2010 and will be
getting married in July 2011. |

Nicole Wickersham
Junior Technician
I was born in Trenton, NJ and moved
between the Poconos and Bucks County before
settling in Lower Bucks County with my husband,
Joe. We were married in February 2000.
I started at NVH in April 2009 as a Junior Technician.
My duties include assisting the doctors in exam
rooms, blood draws, taking radiographs and
filling prescriptions, along with training to
become a surgical technician. Prior to coming on
board here at NVH I worked at small
animal/avian/exotic and emergency practices. I
also briefly left the field to work in a
biomedical laboratory, but quickly found that I
was anything but happy not working with animals
on a daily basis.
When I'm not at work I enjoy going to the beach,
reading, painting, horseback riding and just
hanging out with my husband and our extended
(furry) family which includes 5 cats (Isis, Max,
Dodger, Jimmy and Loki), 2 dogs (Ginger and
Wally) and1 feisty albino California Kingsnake
(Persephone).
I've enjoyed my time here at NVH so far and am proud to
work with such a caring, compassionate group of
people. |

Janelle Brofman
Out Patient Technician
Hello. I have always adored animals and
enjoyed working with them for as long as I can remember.
I have been at NVH since 1998. I began in the kennel,
was quickly promoted to kennel supervisor and worked my
way up to an outpatient technician. Currently, I handle
all outpatient cases and assist doctors in the excellent
care of their patients. I am in charge of the inventory
of the hospital to make sure that everything gets
ordered and is not expired.
I am the proud mother of Kylie born in 1997 and Tyler
born in 2000. I have a miniature poodle named Gizmo, 6
cats (Smokey, Ricochet, Maggiano, Ciera, Lizzie and
Trixie), 2 chinchillas (Chinny and Chilly) and some
fish. I have also fostered a number of cats in hopes to
find them the wonderful homes they deserve. And so far
it has been a success.
In my spare time I enjoy spending time with my family,
pet-sitting for local families and just relaxing.
I look forward to meeting you and your pets. |

Devon Colston
Out Patient Technician
I have
been with Newtown Veterinary Hospital since June
of 2009. I have many years experience with
animals and six years alone in the veterinary
field. My job is to greet you and your pet, take
histories, vital signs and walk you through the
exam process, plus so MUCH MORE. I also assist
veterinarians with treatments, restraint, x-rays
and education. In addition, I am in charge of
educating school age children and girl scouts on
small animal science, behavior and the care they
require. My specialty is canine behavior. My
philosophy is that pets are family and are to be
treated as such. They deserve the best. Pets
thrive on love, kindness and attention and that
is what they will get here at NVH.
I am the proud parent of two little girls named Natalie
and Nina and two canine boys, Brandon
(corgi mix) and Oscar (miniature dachshund).
They are my life, are extremely active in my
work and they share my love for animals. Oscar
even performs in my demos.
In addition to full-time work and full-time parenting,
I am also a student pursuing a degree in Animal
Behavior. I am looking forward
to meeting you and your pet and I am honored to
be a part of this wonderful team!!! |

Melissa D'Armiento Out
Patient Technician
I was born in New Brunswick, New Jersey but
moved to Newtown when I was little and have
been living here ever since. My love for
animals began when I became a volunteer at Indian Walk
Veterinary Hospital in November 2004. I began working as
a Kennel Assistant for while I was attending Villa
Joseph Marie High School. After graduating, I was
accepted into West Virginia University where I received
a bachelor's in Animal and Veterinary Science in
December 2009. After graduating from West Virginia
University, I began working as a technician here at NVH.
I hope to be a part of this family for years to come! I
am currently in the process of applying to veterinary
school and hope to become a successful veterinarian
someday.
I have one cat named Princess. Princess was a stray
kitten who I took in and nursed back to health. She is
the love of my life and I couldn't imagine life without
her. |
 |
I was born and
raised in Levittown, PA where I still
live today with my husband Demetrios and
our four cats Pepper, Millie, Raven, and
Darby and our dog Ellie. We were married
in October 2005.
After
graduating from Neshaminy HS in 1997, I
made one of the most difficult decisions
of my life. Being the "homebody" that I
am, I chose to go four hours away to
college, to the University of
Connecticut. It is not that far, but for
me it was a big step. I have a lot of
family (aunts, uncles, cousins, etc.) in
Massachusetts which helped a little, but
it wasn't home. I learned a lot about
myself in those four years and in the
end I graduated in May 2001 with a BS in
Animal Science. Two days after
graduation I started working here at NVH.
I graduated in
February 2006 from Holy Family
University with a degree in Elementary
Education... a big leap from the animal
world but the explanation on this one
would take up about 5 more pages!! I
still work at NVH on weekends and
occasionally during the week if they
need me. I am currently a substitute
teacher in the Bristol Township.

Valley College for a Bachelor of Science in
Animal Biotechnology and Conservation. I am also
hoping to go back to college for my

Sue Good
Receptionist
I
started at NVH in August 2008. I was born and
raised in Bucks County. I graduated from West
Chester University with a B.S. in Finance in
2001. Prior to NVH, I had been working in the
mortgage banking industry for several years. I
have had a love for animals since I can
remember, which is how I ended up with a
full-time position here at NVH. I have always
grown up with dogs, rabbits, hamsters and
turtles - I tortured my parents! I currently
live in Newtown with my husband Chris. We have the
friendliest Shiba Inu named Bailey, two cats
that my husband rescued (Lola and Bear) and Mr.
Bigz, a whopping 3.8 pound Chihuahua! |

John Groth
Receptionist
In
November of 2005, I started working at the Front
Desk at NVH. I moved to Newtown in 1993 from New
York (hence the accent), and was also a previous
client. Having the opportunity to have been on
both sides of the fence, I was always extremely
satisfied with the medical care my cat Muffin
received. She was the sweetest cat in the world
at home, but unfortunately had the reputation of
being one of the meanest patients. The proof of
the wonderful care she received was that she
lived until almost 22 years. When I started
working here, I was actually in awe of the love
and devotion that the doctors and staff have for
the patients that they treat. They always try
and go the extra distance, and I am proud to be
on their team. Before coming to NVH, I worked in
the fashion/textile industry, but when the
industry dried up here and went offshore, it was
impossible to find work. I love travel (favorite
cities London, Paris and of course my hometown
of New York), music (favorites still being the
Beatles and Motown), movies (Star Wars, Harry
Potter and vintage movies), reading, collecting
(vintage Star Wars and Barbie), designing and
cooking. I am now the proud "Dad" of Harry,
Hermoine and Ron, 3 cats that I adopted from
here. |

Elvis. In October 2009 we added our son Connor
to our family.
A 2005 graduate of Harcum College with a
degree in Animal Center Management, I joined the

24 hour emergency veterinary hospital. I started
here at Newtown Vet in May 2007. |

Marriage and Family Counseling and Trauma. I am
looking forward to this next step in my life. I
enjoy that I get to work with animals and
people.
I live with my parents and brother. When I'm not

playing disk golf, hiking and swimming.
I am looking forward to my career here at NVH! |

Heather Somers
Receptionist
Hi!
I've worked in animal care sporadically from
2000 on. I decided to make a career out of
it at the end of 2007. That brought me to
NVH in October 2008. In November 2008 I
started classes at Penn Foster College to
earn my Associate of Science Degree as a
Veterinary Technician. At home, I have two
beautiful cats, Bella (grey & white) and
Romeo (black & white). They are wonderful
little trouble makers. Things that make me
happy are my cats (obviously), my family and
friends, music, board games, Broadway,
writing, skinny vanilla lattes, Wawa iced
tea and Madeline Kahn movie marathons. |

Cathy Holmes
Animal Caretaker
I
joined the kennel staff of Newtown
Veterinary Hospital in August of 2009.
Although I am new to the veterinary field, I
have enjoyed living with and caring for many
different types of pets throughout my life.
Currently, I have one dog, named Isis, who
is a seven-year old female Samoyed and three
Beta fish named Ping, Pong and Pang!
In February of 2009, I moved to Bucks County from the
San Francisco Bay Area to live with my
daughter Jamie, who is also an employee of
NVH. My most recent accomplishment was the
completion of a Fine Arts degree from
Modesto Junior College in California. Most
of my working career was spent in the
Computer Networking industry as a Graphic
Designer and Technical Illustrator.
I have many interest and hobbies but having the
opportunity to work with the NVH team, is
one of the most rewarding experiences of my
life. I just love being around and caring
for all the animals that come into the
kennels at Newtown Veterinary Hospital. |

I was born in
Bristol, PA, but we moved to North
Carolina since my dad was in the Army.
After four years, we were transferred to
Germany, where my brother was born.
After Desert Storm, Dad retired from the
Army and we moved to Levittown.
I started at
NVH in the summer of 2003 as a kennel
assistant, working part-time until I
graduated from Harry S. Truman HS in
2004. After graduation I began working
full-time and was soon promoted
to Kennel Supervisor. This has given me
an opportunity to make a difference at
the hospital.
I have a Husky
mix named Toby, born in 2002, and a cat
named Mew, born in 2004, whom I rescued
as a three day old kitten who needed to
be bottle fed. I also have another mix
breed dog named Prince I just adopted
from Pet Guardian.
I enjoy
shopping, being with my friends, horse
back riding, and spending time with my
family.

Head Teacher in Day Care Hi, my name is Monica and I
am the Head Teacher here at the NVH Kid's Korner.
When Newtown Veterinary Hospital moved to their
beautiful new building in 2009, they started a
day care for employee's children. It is a
wonderful addition to an already wonderful
environment! I have been working with children
for 13 years and have my CDA (Child Development
Associate). I have been a nanny and also a Head
Teacher at The Goddard School for many years. I
live in Doylestown, PA with my wonderful 5 year
old son, Ashton, and our 13 year old shepherd
mix, Star, a.k.a. Boo-Boo. I love children and
animals, so NVH is the perfect fit. |

name is Nicole and I am a teacher in Kids Korner.
I started working here when they opened the new
building. I live in Holland with my husband
Sonny and our three beautiful boys Sonny, Colin
and Brad. I love the opportunity that I have
here to be with these great kids and watch them
grow! |
