Veterinarian Overview
Dr. Amy Van Tassel has been practicing in the Chicago suburbs since graduating from the University of Illinois in 2000. She knew she wanted to become a veterinarian at a very young age- kindergarten, in fact. She prides herself on caring for her patients as she cares for her own pets--with genuine compassion and a focus on prevention and early intervention. In her spare time, she enjoys gardening, scrapbooking, handicrafts, and taking long walks with Tim and their furry family. Dr. Amy and Tim met at school and have been married since 2002. They're very happy to have the opportunity to work together, caring for their patients and clients. "Opie" was adopted by Dr. Amy and Tim from As Good As Gold rescue when he was 6 months old.
