About Our Hospital

Geri

Hospital Manager

Geri started at Clintonville Animal Hospital in April of 2017. Prior to CAH, Geri had worked in the veterinary field for over ten years and garnered much experience with a variety of interesting pets and interesting people. Taking her love of animals home, Geri raised German Rottweilers, an Australian Shepherd/Border Collie mix who lived to be 16 and rescued several mixed breeds from the shelters. Not to be limited only to our canine friends, Geri had several cats, even though her husband was allergic, who found a caring home. Through the years, her family of three was blessed but when her son moved out this last year, she found herself an empty nester. She and her husband decided it was time to slow down and moved to the country. Sadly, their last pets had passed in the previous year. Geri knew it was time for a special fur child to find a home. Geri and her husband adopted their pup, Paislee, a Lab mix from Columbus Dog Connection on Christmas Eve 2018. They enjoy walking their sweet girl and letting her run free in her new forever home. In her spare time, Geri enjoys baking, reading, gardening, hiking, and antiquing.
