Turner Veterinary Service welcomes home a familiar face
Advertisement
By Rhonda Baillargeon LVT
Turner Veterinary Service will be welcoming a new doctor with a familiar face to the office in March. Claire Morissette Girardin will be joining the staff and seeing patients with veterinarians Nancy Derocher, Christine Gerardi and Erin Barker.
Morissette grew up in Auburn and dreamed of becoming a veterinarian. After receiving a bachelor’s degree in animal science from the University of Maine, she later graduated from the University of Pennsylvania School of Veterinary Medicine. Returning to the area and treating pets for 18 years at Central Maine Veterinary Hospital in Turner, she transferred to Topsham Animal Wellness Center when CMVH closed suddenly.
We are pleased to report she will be returning to Turner once again. She enjoys being a veterinarian and excels in both medicine and surgery. Her compassion, dedication and knowledge will be an asset to our clients, and she will love their fur babies as her own. Morrissette Girardin lives in Auburn with her husband, two children, two dogs and two cats. When she is not seeing patients, she loves spending time with her family, preferably outdoors, and especially at a beach. We invite everyone to welcome her back by calling to schedule an appointment.
