Bridget Behan, Reception
Allison Miller, Reception
My name is Allison. I was born and raised here in East Hampton. Animals have always been a very important part of my life. I really enjoy working at the clinic because the doctors and my coworkers are as equally in love with animals as I am and they are truly compassionate people. It's so rewarding to be a member of the clinics staff. Whether it's just petting a silly dog on the head while it's waiting to be seen or being able to support a patients family during an emotional time, rest assured our staff pours 100% heart into everything we do. When I am not at work I am at home with my husband and our family of 13 animals. All of which are rescued. Roscoe, Ding, Igor and Titi are our 4 dogs and Norman, Colby Jack, Dooda, Tinka, Smith and Wesson are our 6 cats. They keep us very, very busy.

My special interests are Anesthesia, Surgical Nursing, Pharmacology and Equine Sports medicine. My human family is Craig and my daughter Erin, who is a student at the University of Vermont. My animal family consists of three dogs : Otis - a Jack Russel, Koda - a Corgi, and Petey - a Flat coat Retriever, 2 cats Gus and Gizmo, a cocketiel named "The Dude", and my horse Wizard of Warwick. Wizard and I are retired from the Dressage Ring and enjoy trail riding every chance we get!
When I am not working you can find me riding my horse, boating and fishing,enjoying
the beach or gardening, and hibernating in the winter!

I am a Licensed Veterinary Technician and have been working at the clinic since 2003. Aside from my two human children I live with 2 Jack Russels, a Labrador, a cat, a bunny and my horse, Ben. When I am not working, I can be found hiking with the dogs, trail riding with Ben, volunteering with the Wildlife Rescue Center, skiing or flying! (I just recently passed my private pilot's exam!)
Paula Tuthill, Veterinary Assistant
I have been working at the clinic since 2007 as a vet assistant. I went to school upstate at SUNY Cobleskill, where I played volleyball for 2 years. I am originaly from Wading River which is about 45 minutes west of here. I moved to East Hampton in December of 2006 to live with my fiance Andy. We have 2 dogs, Ruby (mini dachshund) and Toby (Boston Terrier). I love animals and am glad to be working in such a great environment. When I am not at work you can find me relaxing at home with my dogs, or sitting at a softball/baseball game watching my husband play.
