Shana AtkinsI graduated from the Annville-Cleona Highschool in 2005, as well as the Lebanon County Career and Technology Center with a concentration in Cosmotology. Although I went to school for Cosmotology, my love for animals is what made me want to work in a Veterinarian office. I am the morning receptionist and my job is to greet clients and their furry friends!, weigh pets, take payments, schedule appointments, and help clients as they enter and leave their appointments.  I live in Cleona with my husband Eric and my adorable cairn terrier Polly!
