Courtney

Lead Veterinary Technician

Courtney, an RVT and rehabilitation enthusiast, joined Westside Animal Hospital in 2021 after graduating cum laude from the Colorado Academy of Veterinary Technology. She loves helping pets feel their best and enjoys spending time with her dogs, family, and friends.

Courtney grew up in a small town just north of Boston, Massachusetts. While attending the medical occupations program during high school, she met her husband, Anthony. He joined the military shortly after graduating, and they have been traveling and moving ever since. Through all the moves, she found a love for the veterinary medicine world. Courtney began her career as a kennel attendant in Fayetteville, NC. At that clinic, she was trained to monitor surgical procedures, run laboratory tests, assist doctors in rooms, client services, and much more.

Courtney and Anthony moved to Colorado Springs in 2018 with their two dogs, Charlie and Mac. Soon after, she decided to go to technician school to become an RVT and further her knowledge. Courtney graduated from Colorado Academy of Veterinary Technology cum laude, obtaining an Associate of Applied Science in Veterinary Technology in 2021. While in school, she took a special interest in rehabilitation. Courtney joined the Westside family in September 2021, completing her internship and restoring the rehabilitation program with Dr. Parrent.

During her free time, Courtney enjoys reading, training their new German Shepherd Dog, Rukia, and spending time with friends and family.

She looks forward to helping your fur babies feel their best!
