My name is Brittany Alfino and I am a veterinary practice manager in beautiful Orange County, CA. I have been in the veterinary field for 10 years starting as a receptionist, then a kennel attendant, then a technician, and ultimately managing the veterinary hospital my husband and I have owned for the past 4 years. I have helped grow our hospital from a 1 doctor practice to a 7 doctor practice, as well as starting out with 4 employees total, to now having a staff of 40 and counting. As our practice quickly grew, we began to see the extreme need for remote support staff and this only increased when the pandemic hit in 2020. We now have a staff of 15 remote client service representatives. I have 2 daughters, 6yrs old and 4 months old, who keep me very busy in my off time! My favorite place to recharge is at the beach and I am a die-hard Laker and Dodger fan! I am passionate about helping individuals step into their purpose in veterinary medicine, as well as, helping to bridge the gap between clients, their pets, and the veterinary community.
