Madison is a rehabilitation technician at SRVC! She enjoys helping out wherever she can so you may also see her in our general practice! Madison’s favorite part of working in the rehabilitation center is having the opportunity to form a bond with not only the patients but the owners as well, creating the ideal team and plan that will help each pet improve. Madison enjoys the process and getting to watch each small step in the right direction.

Madison has two dogs, Lexie the Labrador and Zoey the Husky.
