By Amy Chionis
Faith Hoffman is an East Coaster with the manners and grace to prove it. She has worked with us for two years, primarily as an Internal Medicine Nurse, and has recently “branched out” as an Emergency and Critical Care Lead Nurse. To hear Faith tell it, she specializes in “little dogs” as typified by her family: George and Kayla, miniature pinschers (a.k.a. very tiny, hungry people), and Mitzi, an American Eskimo. Faith’s ability to connect with her patients is exemplified by the fact that if anyone in the hospital can get a sick animal to eat, it’s Faith. She possesses a very special gift of matching compassionate, sensible care with technical smarts. Not just a great vet-erinary nurse, Faith is an accomplished musician, writer and cook. She keeps VetCare team members going with her wicked confections and upbeat energy. Patients are Left to right: Amy Choinis, Dr. Kipperman, “Clancy-Gordon” and Faith Hoffman, celebrating Dr. K’s birthday.
