Tammy

Tammy Gingras

Tammy has been volunteering with us since May of 2012 – you may have seen her on Saturdays or the occasional weekday. In 2019, she agreed to become a part time technician with us, so you'll be seeing more of her!

She’s originally from Los Angeles and moved to Ohio in 1993 to work for Limited Brands. In 2002 she started volunteering at a local animal shelter, where she discovered her passion for veterinary medicine and animal rescue. Tammy wanted to become more knowledgeable as a volunteer, so she attended Columbus State Community College to achieve her goal of becoming a Registered Veterinary Technician, which she became in November of 2010. She works full time as a Store Inventory Planner during the week, and on weekends can be found working as a Vet Tech for us, for Clintonville Animal Hospital, or training for an upcoming marathon - the L.A. Marathon in the spring of 2020 was her 25th overall! Her dogs and cats (the number, breeds, and ages vary) are adopted from either a shelter or a rescue. She also has a love for Alpacas and volunteers on an Alpaca farm when she has the chance.

When she's not at Berwick, she is exploring the local parks with her roomies, working out in her home gym, or in the kitchen cooking and baking.

Laboratory

Laboratory services are a vital part of the diagnostic process when it comes to veterinarian care.
