Tess Richard Veterinary Technician

Tess joined the Hamilton Wenham Veterinary Hospital team in 2020 and has since become a familiar, friendly face at the clinic. Initially starting on a pre-veterinary track, she studied Animal Science at Iowa State University and the University of Vermont. She is currently attending North Shore Community College to become a Certified Veterinary Technician. Tess lives in Essex with her two long-haired German Shepherds, Mabel and Lou, and her bunny, Mesa. When she isn’t working at the hospital, she enjoys going on outdoor adventures with her dogs, painting, and spending time with friends. Tess has a particular soft spot for her favorite breed—so if you bring your German Shepherd in for a visit, you can almost certainly expect to see her there to help!
