Dennis and Mary -Therese.
Dennis, an associate Veterinarian at All Creatures Veterinary Hospital, is an acclaimed rib connoisseur and objective provider of much needed culinary feedback......he also brings the wine. Mary Therese a speech pathologist, interprets for David and helps Caitlin with her F's and T's. She adds a toughness to our team when she rides up in black leather on her huge harley davidson motorcycle. She is the perfect balance to Dennis who rides up on a purple one.
