Your Dedicated Veterinary Team
Meet Samantha Bingham
Certified Veterinary Assistant & Receptionist
Known to most as Sammy, I bring eight years of animal care experience straight to the front desk. As a certified veterinary assistant, I’ve cared for pets of all kinds and have a genuine love for learning. Whether I’m mastering a new patient care technique or building a lasting connection with a new pet owner, I pour my heart into making sure you and your animals feel welcome from the moment you reach out to us.
Life Outside the Clinic
My love for animals extends beyond the clinic. At home, my husband, our two daughters, and I raise chickens and care for a large fancy goldfish aquarium.
Meet Whitley Heldenbrand
Veterinary Assistant & Receptionist
Hello, my name is Whitley and I am a Veterinary Assistant. I have been in the Veterinary Medicine field for 3 years. I have worked with both small and large animals. Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my dog Mabel as well as family and friends. I believe a friendly attitude, a good sense of humor, and genuine compassion can go a long way in making pets and their families feel comfortable.
Life Outside the Clinic
Meet Marissa Cooper
Veterinary Assistant & Receptionist
I earned my bachelor’s degree in Animal Science from Kansas State University, where I developed a strong foundation in animal health, nutrition, and management. My greatest passion is all things equine, and I enjoy learning about and working with horses whenever I can. Outside of my professional interests, I love spending time outdoors with my family and making memories together. When I’m not around animals, you’ll often find me in the kitchen baking my favorite treat—homemade banana bread. My favorite color is purple, and I strive to bring the same warmth, dedication, and enthusiasm to everything I do.
