Marc Troob, Hospital Supervisor/Patient Care Manager
Been working in the practice since 1994 (when someone called out sick and my father said it was time to get dressed and head to the office)
I love to talk to clients and use real world human examples to try to help them explain what is going on with their pets. A lot of times once they can think about certain things personally they can better understand the treatment or care their pets need.
In my free time I love to ski and ride bike with my wife and daughter. I enjoy building local mountain bike trails and working with youth riders as both coach and mentor. Currently working on building out a camper van for family adventure in the future.
