Emily has been with Affton Veterinary Clinic since 2009. She has a passion for animals, especially kittens that is matched by no one I have ever met. She is dedicated to the health and well-being of all animals and takes her position very seriously. She was the very first certified stem cell technician in St. Louis and prepares all of the PRP and stem cells for procedures in clinic. If you would like to know if stem cell therapy is right for your pet, read up on Medi-Vet (see the link) and then ask Emily about it. Her knowledge base and commitment to the procedure is undeniable. Her approach to the clients is family based and no pet will ever go without love and attention on Emily’s shift. Emily thrives to care for the fuzzy critters of this world, but also has an innate passion and interest in reptiles and amphibians.

We miss our Emily. She is out fighting the fight of her life in battling three different types of cancers. Her spirit has never wavered and she takes the painful and uncomfortable chemotherapy in stride, smiling through it all and being a source of strength for those of us who struggle to understand how this can happen to such a young, compassionate and beautiful young lady. Due to her inability to work through this, her medical bills are piling up and we want to help all we can. Please click on the below link, read her story and make a donation on behalf of all those critters she has spent her life tending to. It is time to give a little back!
