Our Staff

RECEPTIONISTS
We have wonderful receptionists whose morning responsibilities include admitting all the surgery patients, those coming in for grooming, boarding, and examinations. In the afternoon, they ensure all our day patients make it home with their medications, special diets, home care instructions, and personal belongings.  All day long they schedule appointments, answer questions, or direct your call to a technician or veterinarian if needed.
Julie joined our hospital in March of 1999 with several years of experience as a veterinary receptionist and animal care giver. Julie's favorite aspect of the job is getting to know all the wonderful animals that walk, slither, and hop through the door.   She has a full house at home with her husband, son, 4 cats (Don Juan, Sir Lancelot, Queen Guinevere, and Lady Isabella), and 2 dogs (Radar and Dutchess).  Her free moments are spent gardening, shopping, remodeling her house, and sleeping to recover!
Kathy began at the hospital in August of 1999.  Kathy's favorite part of her job is meeting all the adorable puppies and kittens that come through the door.  She grew up in Rural Retreat and came to the New River Valley in 1984 to attend Radford University.  She now lives in Childress with her husband, a dairy farmer, their dog Zack, 7 cats, and 70 Holstein cattle!!!  Kathy enjoys traveling, reading, gardening, and making dog biscuits (yummm!)
Stephanie has been with us since December 2001. She is a graduate of Pulaski High School and is currently attending Radford University, working toward her Nursing degree. She lives in Dublin with her cat and dog.
Technicians
Dublin Animal Hospital is fortunate to have two talented, experienced licensed veterinary technicians (LVT's) on our staff.  They are responsible for nursing care, laboratory tests, anesthesia, surgical assistance, anesthesia recovery, quality control, equipment maintenance, radiology, client education, and everything else that goes on daily in the hospital.
Tereba (or ‘Ms Kitty’) has been with Dublin Animal Hospital since 1983. Although cats have a special place in her heart, she enjoys working with dogs, reptiles, avian and pocket pets also. What little time she has outside of the hospital, she fills with community service work of the Fairlawn-Radford Ruritan Club, and with collecting all things cat related. Her family here consists of 3 cats: Orieo, Rosie, and Charlie.

Scyleanea is a native of the New River Valley and is a recent graduate of Blue Ridge Community College’s Animal Technology program. She lives in Dublin with her husband Ernie.

Assistants

Dublin Animal Hospital has several wonderful assistants whose responsibilities include assisting the vets in the exam rooms and during treatments, setting up laboratory tests, monitoring patient well being, making sure daily medications are given, and filling prescriptions.
Julie B. This is the same Julie who does such a great job of being an receptionist, we let her shine as an assistant too.
Julie W. lives in the Shiloh area of Pulaski County with her husband and children. Julie’s dedication and hard work show in everything she does.
Animal Caretakers

Our animal caretakers all share the responsibility of ensuring your pet has a wonderful stay when they board at our hospital.  They work together to keep all animals in the hospital and kennel clean, comfortable, and happy. If this means daily romps, extra special attention, Hardee’s breakfast biscuits , or lambskin cuddle blankets, they will spend the extra hour to make sure it’s done.
Craig used to work for us at the old location and just recently became a full time employee at our new facility. Everyone appreciates Craig’s positive attitude, from clients to patients to the rest of the staff.

Audrey - is a part time animal caretaker and student at Pulaski High School.

Veterinarians

Our Doctors are all dedicated professionals who work hard to make sure your pet(s) have the finest care possible. Their goal is to have your animals be “clients for life” and allow them to live long, healthy lives through regular checkups, vaccinations and dental care. Our doctors’ dedication doesn’t stop at the end of the day. Each of them rotates through Emergency Call and one of them is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.)
Dr. Mary May was hired by Dr. Stanley in October 1990, and purchased the practice when he retired in January 1996. She is a graduate of Virginia-Maryland Regional College of Veterinary Medicine. Her special interests are avian, reptile and exotic pet medicine and surgery. She is a member of the Virginia Academy of Veterinary Medicine, the American Veterinary Medicine Association, The Virginia Veterinary Medicine Association and the local Southwest Virginia Veterinary Medicine Association. She is also a member of the American Animal Hospital Association, the Rare Breeds Conservancy, Pulaski Chamber of Commerce and Pulaski Rotary Club. When not at work, she spends much of her time with her husband and 2 children camping, traveling and gardening. Her long-term goals are to expand the new hospital into a 24 hour critical care facility and train a yoke of oxen (no kidding).
Dr. Nancy Currin joined Dublin Animal Hospital in October of 1999 as another permanent part-time associate veterinarian!  She is another Virginia-Maryland College of Veterinary Medicine graduate.  Dr. Currin lives with her husband John (also a veterinarian) and 2 children in Blacksburg. She also has two dogs.

Dr Lynda Oleksuk joined Dublin Animal Hospital in 2001. She trains agility dogs and lives with her husband in Blacksburg.

Melissa has been with us since Spring 1995. Melissa’s job is to keep the business side of our hospital running smoothly. She does our ordering, book-keeping, staff scheduling, and is responsible for inspiration, trouble-shooting and paperwork, paperwork, paperwork!   Although we keep her busy in the office, Melissa says she enjoys the interaction with pets and their people. Melissa feels her greatest rewards come when she is able to add a little personal touch to a client’s visit because she knows them, and knows what would please them. When not at work, Melissa and her husband enjoy football, racing and shopping (Melissa does, anyway).

Phyllis - has been involved in pet grooming since 1984 and with Dublin Animal Hospital since 1990.   She has experience in all breeds of dogs, and enjoys working with cats also. She prefers to talk to each owner before she begins trimming or grooming their pet to make sure she understands their expectations, and to make sure the pet’s coat is in a condition that makes the desired trim possible. If you have questions about shampoos, crème rinses or coat conditioners, Phyllis is the one to ask. Outside of work she enjoys working with her many farm animals, camping, and gardening.
