She does not come from a veterinary medicine background and actually started off here with no love for animals! After a year of working here she now has 3 cats and is well on her way to her crazy cat lady status. She is always up to taking courses to learn more about your furry friends and how we can help them be more comfortable and willing to love the vet.

Raya

Client Care Representative

My name is Raya and I started here at Willowbrook in July of 2023. I have 2 French bulldogs and 2 bunnies!! I always knew i had a love for animals but seeing what can be done behind the exam room doors is truly remarkable. I have always loved animals and their personalities, but my true passion is working with people. I love being able to bring peace to people in the front as they are typically stressed out on what is going on in the back.
