Ben Windward Animal Hospital

 BEN – Hospital Manager

Though I enjoy working with all the animals we see at the clinic, my favorite animals to care for are the reptiles. Lately, I have been learning the more technical aspect of treating animals.  I am currently attending college to further advance my career in veterinary medicine. As the Practice Manager, my goal is to do my very best to assure the Staff & our Patients are all happy and the clinic is running harmoniously.

I am the Resident Veterinary Technician. I have always had a love for reptiles, birds and furry friends too. I currently have two snakes and Diego, a Yellow-Headed Amazon. I have a huge heart that allows me to care for every animal, whether scaled, furry or feathered.

I completed my school’s Internship program with Windward Animal Hospital and my love of animals helped me to decide to become a permanent part of the team. My favorite part of the job is seeing animals do a 180 after treatment. It makes me feel as if we made a difference.

John – Kennel Technician

I love see the varying animals that come through our doors. I am knowledgeable about the animals that we see and their wild counterparts. I love to play with the puppies and kittens whenever time allows. I dedicate my time to making sure the animals stay safe and are well cared for while at the clinic.

Diane – Receptionist

I came to Windward Animal Hospital originally as a client to have my bunny, Gerti, cared for. I quickly learned the ins & outs of bunny husbandry and care. My knowledge and passion for rabbits made me a great fit to join the team. I care for two rabbits Jessica (Self-proclaimed Second official Mayor of Bunnyville) and Harvey.
