Client and Patient  Care Staff Nancy Deutsch Office Manager Hi, my name is Nancy. I am so glad that you are taking an interest in our clinic. I have worked at Memorial Road Pet Hospital since 1993. I moved to Edmond from Anaheim, CA. My love of animals led me to seek a career in the veterinary field. When I was 16, my high school offered an occupational program where you could do volunteer work. I chose a veterinary office where I worked for five years. In that time I learned everything from animal restraint to paying bills. When I moved back to California, I took a job with a six doctor practice. I had the pleasure of a very challenging work environment both with the level of animal care provided and managing a high number of staff members. This brought a new opportunity with two doctors opening a new clinic and I jumped at the chance. So to date I have worked with animals for 30 years. My other passion is my family. I am married to Paul French and have three boys, Adam,  Chris, and Nathan. Our pets are Quiet, a cat that is quite big, he's 19lbs. Cheyenne is a tri-colored sheltie that has captured the heart of our entire family.     Catherine Mekis Receptionist I'm Catherine, I joined the staff in March of 2006. I came to Oklahoma from Colorado where I worked for a mixed animal practice and a small animal practice for five  years. I am in the process of attaining my bachelors degree in Political Science from the University of Central Oklahoma. My hobbies include horseback riding, camping, hiking, fishing, sewing, knitting, baking, and reading. I share my home with my husband Michael, our two horses Little Man and Brianna, and three dogs Spencer, Chief, and Strayford. E-mail me at catherine@mrphhome.com.

I have a wonderful daughter. She is the best! I have a true passion for nature. By living on an acre of land, I get to enjoy nature at its best by feeding, watching, and taking care of wildlife, and planting flowers and trees. It's the best therapy in the world. I have Lab, Dazie May, a German Shepard, Sallee Sue, a cat Soxs, and inside birds. I love them all very much, they make my life complete. I have a very special place in my heart for animals; this is why I have worked in animal care for the past ten years. I can not imagine doing anything else. My life is blessed and good.   Karen Grant Veterinary Assistant Hi, I'm Karen. I joined the staff in January of 2007. I am a pet care technician and am training to be a veterinary assistant.
