Certified Veterinary Technician

Kristin Vasaitis

Kristin is a certified veterinary technician with 20 years of experience in veterinary medicine, driven by a lifelong love of animals and a passion for compassionate, high-quality care. Her career spans every level of the field, from her start as an assistant to certified technician and leadership roles, giving her a well-rounded understanding of both patient care and practice operations. Her special areas of interest include pet dentistry and public education.

A graduate of HCC’s Veterinary Technology Program, Kristin later returned as an adjunct professor, teaching laboratory procedures and surgical preparation. She also brings extensive veterinary marketing experience, having built and led a marketing department for a multi-location practice, where she strengthened community relationships, referral partnerships, and organized educational events for veterinary professionals.

She is thrilled to be helping start the practice alongside Dr. Brunson, whom she has long admired and supported throughout her career, and to return to the medical side of veterinary medicine while continuing to grow and learn in this exciting opportunity.

Customer Care Team

Beth Seles

Beth’s love for animals has been a lifelong passion and the reason she chose to work in veterinary care. Helping pets live happy, healthy lives is truly what she enjoys most, and she treats every animal as if they were her own!

At home, she is a proud pet parent to five dogs, so she understands firsthand the joy, responsibility, and unconditional love that comes with caring for animals. This personal experience allows her to connect with both pets and their owners on a deeper level.

When she’s not at the clinic, Beth enjoys spending quality time with her family and surrounded by those she cares about most—both two-legged and four-legged. She is grateful to be part of a field that combines compassion, dedication, and her lifelong love for animals every single day!

Client Testimonials

“You can tell right away that they care about the animals here. My dog is usually nervous at the vet, but the team moved slowly, talked to her, and never forced anything. Highly recommend!!”
