  • Taylor F.
    Team Lead, Veterinary Assistant -Training to be an RVT

    Taylor is a native Fallbrookian and has been in Veterinary Medicine since 2017.  Taylor attended Palomar College and Animal Behavior College to earn he Veterinary Assistant Certificate (VA). She's also attended VASE - a college designed for working Veterinary Professionals, to peruse her RVT license.  Taylor is inspired by the positive results of medicine and medical procedures in improving, preventing, or curing diseases in animals who are sick or suffering.  Taylor's love for animals started at an early age when she once held a funeral for an ant.  Taylor loves seeing the benefits of dental procedures; clean teeth, unpainful mouths, and improved health for our patients.

    Taylor's quirky fur baby: 'Lux,' her tuxedo cat will eat anything, including his cat litter! That sneaky cat!

    Taylor's thoughts on AAH: 'Dr. Nissan is an actual walking encyclopedia and the staff is great. He believes in practicing 'excellent quality' medicine and treatment as his standard and so do I. He is someone I look up to and someone I would 100% trust my pets with.'

  • Kaila G.
    Veterinary Assistant (VA), training to be an RVT

    Kaila is a Southern California native and started her career  in Veterinary Medicine in 2014 at the San Diego Humane Society. She obtained her Veterinary Assistant (VA) certificate from Animal Behavior College and is attending Penn Foster to complete her RVT training.  From an early age, Kaila was inspired by Steve Erwin to help animals. She enjoys surgical assisting and routinely 'sits along' on dental procedures to get a jump start on her training. She loves the tremendous health benefits for the animals and the rewards of looking at a clean mouth!

    Kaila's quirky fur baby: 'Dynamight,' a Doberman-Dutch Shepard mix, chases lights and her shadow, making everyone laugh.  When needed she also donates blood to critical patients in need!

    Kaila's thoughts on AAH: 'We have an amazing team devoted to patient care, safety, and standards. We really care about our patients' overall health and comfort.'
