Meet Our Team at Randhurst Animal Hospital

Morgan, Practice Manager

Morgan comes to us with 17 years experience as a Certified Veterinary Technician. She is a Michigan State University graduate, and a Detroit native. She loves working closely with owners to help their pets receive the best care possible. She is looking forward to helping our clinic grow, and working with our staff to provide the best care anywhere. When she is not working she loves to spend time with her family, both the 2 legged and 4 legged members.

Jenny joined our Randhurst Animal Hospital family in September of 2015. She is very excited to be a part of a veterinary practice again. Her dream has always been to not only work with animals but to help animals as well by delivering excellent patient care. Jenny studied in Bel-rea Institute of Animal Technology in Denver, Colorado and graduated in 2010. In her free time she enjoys spending time with her cat Fabio and her family.

Yasmin knew she wanted to be in the veterinary field when she started volunteering at a local animal shelter in Arlington Heights. Therefore, she received a certificate of completion for the Veterinary Assistant Program at Northeastern Illinois University. She recently finished Veterinary Technician school, and passed her National Veterinary Technician Exam in June of 2020. In her free time she loves spending time with her family and working out at the gym.

Ashley joined the Randhurst team in May of 2023 after completing her externship with us. She recently graduated from the Veterinary technician program at Fox College in April. Soon she will take the VTNE and become a certified technician. Growing up she has always loved animals, which in turn motivated her to find a career where she can continuously care for them and create a loving environment. She dedicates her free time to her hedgehog Crispy, her family and friends.

Liz has been working in the veterinary field since 2009, but she has always had a passion for animals. She graduated from Bel-Rea Institute and obtained her CVT license in 2013. She has experience with many different areas of veterinary medicine, but her favorite is surgery and anesthesia. She is happy to be back at Randhurst, and is looking forward to taking care of our furry friends. While she doesn’t currently have any pets, her husband and two boys keep her on her toes.

Sandy has a diverse history in veterinary medicine. Starting in general practice, she went on to specialty medicine including internal medicine, oncology and anesthesia. She has a love for learning and teaching and everyday her patients make her a better nurse. Every patient becomes family. She is passionate about making your pets visit stress free. “If you were lucky enough to know a great one they never really leave. They stay with you as long as you live. Harnessed to your heart, giving their all.”-Togo

She currently lives with 3 cats…Meepers, Tango the Tripod, and Olivia Jayne, as well as 1 human named Matt

Melissa is a graduate of the University of Illinois at Chicago with a degree in occupational therapy. She worked for a veterinary specialty and emergency facility for 8 yrs before joining Randhurst in May of 2017. She has a strong passion for animals, and has a 3 yr old male turtle Herman and a 7yr old male shih tzu, Suki. In her spare time she loves spending time with her husband, her three kids and traveling around the world.

Danielle is our Canadian-born groomer and has been a part of the Randhurst Animal Hospital family since 2009. She has been grooming since 2002 and she loves it! She has worked in some more remote places such as Ocala, FL and Edmonton, Alberta, Canada! Sometimes it is not the most glamorous job, but she feels such a sense of accomplishment helping animals feel and look their best (even if they only want to roll in the mud as soon as they get home!). She currently lives with three wonderful dogs, a handful of cats and a husband. All of her current furry friends were failed fosters for one reason or another and there is always a new foster dog (and cats) moving their way through her home to find permanent homes of their own. Outside of work she is involved in many aspects of the animal world. She trains and competes regularly in agility with all her dogs. They don’t always do well, but they always have fun!

Additionally, one of her dogs works as a therapy dog for Rainbow AAT at Lutheran General Hospital visiting patients. She has fostered and helped find homes for over 62 dogs including four that she transported back from Hurricane Katrina-ravaged New Orleans and, of course, she adopted one of those! She is also active in TNR (trapping neutering releasing) for local feral cats. Last summer she helped with over 80 cats and kittens. What an overwhelming and fulfilling accomplishment that was! She absolutely loves what she does and can’t wait to meet you and your furry family members. Whether you would like a breed style cut, something of your own choosing or you just aren’t sure what you would like, she will be happy to help you figure out what will be best for both you and your pet.
