Our Team

Breadner Veterinary Services prides itself on offering compassionate, loving care to your fuzzy, furry, scaled or winged family member. This would not be possible without our staff. Here you can find the friendly faces you may see in our hospital, or the faces you may not see but are hard at work in the background.

Office Assistants

• Kim - (aka the cat whisperer) has worked in the Veterinary field for over 28 years. (Wow that's a long time in dog and cat years!!!) She's been employed at BVS for over 17 years (1993). She enjoys her job and finds it rewarding in various ways. She shares her life with her daughter Roxy and their three cats: Stick, Willow & Jag, all three of whom were rescued by BVS. When she's not working or spending time with her daughter or family, she can be found walking along side the ocean when the tide is way out.
  "I look forward to meeting you all - drop by and say hello :)"
• Erin M lives with a full house of pets that keep her busy! Violet, a SharpeiX, and Winston, a bulldog, captured her heart from their first wrinkles! She loves meeting new wrinkly and non-wrinkly friends alike.
• Danielle - Danielle has experience in a medical office, but has decided that working with pets is much more interesting.
