Geri - Manager

Geri and her husband walked in to the Cat Clinic a few months after it opened, and it wasn't long before she became an employee.  That was back in 1983!  There probably isn't a cat owner that doesn't know Geri and appreciate all of the care and concern she gives the Cat Clinic and all of the patients and their human owners.  Geri and her husband currently live with an indoo, 'neurotic' cat, Coco, and an  outdoor cat that has adopted them, Chewy.  All of them are entertained by their red ear slider turtle, Bertha.

Dr. Mark Boccella

Dr. Boccella graduated from the University of Pennsylvania School of Veterinary Medicine in 1991.  Initially he worked as an equine veterinarian, but started working with small animals two years later.  Chances are, if you have been a client at the Cat Clinic for a number of years, you have met Dr. Boccella.  He started working part-time for with us in the Fall of 2005, and continues to see cats at the clinic one or two days a week.  Cats and horses are his favorite species.  He spends his free time with his wife, kids and his cat, Mr. Lopez.
