Alissa

Alissa is one of our friendly veterinary receptionists and the first smile you’ll often see when you walk through the doors at Bristol Veterinary Clinic. She holds a Bachelor’s degree in Animal Science from Southern Illinois University and previously worked as a veterinary technician before taking time away from the clinic to raise her children until they reached school age.
Animals have always been at the heart of Alissa’s life. At home, she and her family care for a true menagerie that includes alpacas, horses, chickens, a dog, and a cat. She is also an experienced alpaca breeder who enjoys showing her animals at competitions, as well as spending time riding her horses. Alissa takes great joy in encouraging her children’s schoolwork and their own animal-related passions, blending family life with her lifelong love of animals.
