Heather Smith

Position: Receptionist

Background: I am originally from Pennsylvania.  I joined the Navy and was stationed at MCAS
Cherry Point for three years.  I met my husband there, and we have been married for 12 years. 
We have 2 little girls that we adore!!!!!  I worked as a receptionist for an emergancy vet clinic
for almost 3 years before deciding to stay home with my girls full time.  I have worked with
Dr. Gebhardt in the past, and when this opportunity to work with her again at her own clinic came
along, I jumped at it.  I enjoy working with animals, and the best part of the day is when you get to
see a patient that came in sick go home with his tail wagging!!!!!!!

Hobbies:: I love to spend time with my family.  My husband and I are addicted to the
Discovery Channel, we cannot get enough!  I also enjoy going to the gym, I try to go every
morning.  It's a great stress buster!!!!!  I love to read, but just don't have the time to do it
anymore, maybe as the kids get older I will find time. 

Pets: I have 3 pets.  My husband gave me my 2 cats ,Bosco and Matilda, as gifts 
when he was in the military.  He thought they would keep me company while he was gone
on deployments.  It was nice to have them around during those lonely times!!!!!  They are
getting a little up there in age, but both are still pretty playful.   Bailey is our dog. We adopted
him from the animal shelter 6 years ago.  We don't really know what breed mix he is, but
he looks like a small St. Bernard.  He loves to be with the family and is really great with
our little girls.
