Swan Corner Animal Hospital Staff

	Dr. JOHN A. SPODICK Dr. Spodick first developed his love of animals as a volunteer for the Trailside Museum in Milton at the age of 10. After successfully weaning and releasing 15 baby squirrels, he decided that he wanted to pursue veterinary medicine. Following a 7 year stint at the Primate Center in Southborough, he graduated from Purdue in 1989. At veterinary school he realized that he enjoyed small animal practice as well as his lifelong interest in exotic animals and wildlife. He opened Swan Corner Animal Hospital in 1997, after stints at several area veterinary hospitals.
	ASHLEY COOLIDGE Ashley Coolidge is originally from the small town of West Rutland, Vermont. Ashley decided she wanted to work with animals when she was in high school and started a job at a local clinic at age 16. She worked part-time as a kennel assistant and quickly moved up to helping in appointments, that’s when she decided she wanted to be a Tech. Ashley attended Vermont Technical College from 2005-2007 where she received a degree in Veterinary Technology. In 2009 Ashley moved to Massachusetts to become part of the Swan Corner Animal Hospital staff. She looks forward to meeting you and your pet. Ashley has a cat named Rorschach and a guinea pig named Butters.
	JENNAFER BAUER Jen came to Swan Corner Animal Hospital in July of 2009 after graduating from UNE with a degree in Medical Biology. She worked as a kennel assistant prior to joining our staff. A career in the veterinary field was a simple choice for her, since she has always loved animals. Jen grew up having many pets and now owns 3 cats named Keisha, Butterscotch and Brady. She is interested in the field of veterinary medicine because it’s always evolving and presenting new challenges. Jen enjoys the variety her profession brings and enjoys meeting new pets and their families.

	COLGATE Colgate, our clinic cat, came to us through Kitty Angels in 1998. He was difficult to adopt out because he carried the Feline Immunodeificiency Virus, and he was quite antisocial. Over the years he’s become much more social, but has also developed diabetes, liver problems, ear cancer (twice) and most recently a hyperactive thyroid gland. Now, 13 years later, he has become an institution at Swan Corner, and we can’t imagine the hospital without him.
