We were excited to have Deanna join the Summerside team in August 2019. She is enthusiastic about all aspects of veterinary care and has a strong interest in dentistry, surgical anesthesia and believes in high quality care for all her patients. Deanna loves to spend her spare time hanging out with her family at the lake, on the ski hill or just watching a movie at home. Deanna has two Standard Poodles named Penelope & Daisy.

She lives with her dog Pancake, her cat Chairman Meow and also Maggie, her one eyed Shih Tzu. She also frequently has a menagerie of foster small critters like guinea pigs, ferrets and rabbits.
