Veterinary Technician

Cassie came to us as a veterinary assistant and has worked her way up to technician status.  Even though she's still learning new things every day, she has proven to be a valuable asset to our hospital.  You might've noticed her glowing smile and cheery attitude around the clinic.  Cassie has an authentic love for animals and is an outgoing and athletic person.  We think you will enjoy having her work with you pet.

Laura Crouch

Veterinary Assistant

Laura can be seen every where in our hospital.  She assists our receptionists, technicians, and doctors when needed...meaning she's very busy all the time.  We appreciate the back-breaking work she does for us and our clients.  Outside of Parktown, she enjoys watching movies, playing with her dogs, and is an avid Shark's fan.

Agatha Diepenbrock
Office Manager

The person who really keeps the place running is our office manager, Agatha.  She plays the hardest part at Parktown because her job description is really to solve every problem that comes along.  If you have a special problem or request, just ask to speak to her.  She is a very empathetic person with lots of patience.

When she's not at work she's at play.  Agatha is recently married and has finished with her EMT courses.  She rides her Standardbred horse, Duvall, at every opportunity she can get.

Receptionist

Diann has been our receptionist for as long as most of us can remember.  She currently has three Golden Retrievers - Timmy, Cammi, and Shammy - who run her life.  Timmy is showing in Rally and has completed three degrees.  He is working on his fourth degree.  Cammi is working in Obedience and Rally and has achieved her first degree in Rally.  Last but not least, Shammy is working in Obedience and Rally and hopes to produce some beautiful show puppies soon.  On her off-time, Diann can be found working with her dogs or attending San Jose Sharks hockey games. 

Vicky Rusconi

Receptionist

Vicky is our head receptionist and an old friend and client.  She has two energetic shelties named Abby and Ivy.  Abby is certified for pet therapy where she goes to various care homes and facilities to give hope and friendship to those who need it.  Vicky rescued Ivy from being euthanized for her deafness.  Ivy has proven to be a lovely and smart dog despite her silent world.  Vicky also has a second and primary job as a dog trainer and is a great person to talk to about behavior problems and tips.  If you are interested in hiring her for dog training you are welcome to call our clinic and leave your information for her to call you back.
