Countryside Pet Clinic and Resort

Jolene Bextel, RVT:
Hi, my name is Jolene Bextel.  I graduated from Colby Community College's Veterinary Technology Program, May 2001.  I started working at Countryside Pet Clinic June of 2001 and I greatly enjoy working here.  I grew up in a small town in northeast Kansas and where I spent a lot of time with our dogs, chickens, horses and the neighbor's cows.  I loved helping and working with animals and went on to get a degree where I could continue to do what I love.  I have a cat, Hali, who my husband and I adopted from the Humane Society on Halloween 2003. 

Graham Money, RVT:
My name is Graham Money.  I joined Countryside Pet Clinic in 2003, following graduation from Bel-Rea Institute of Animal Technology with an Associates degree in Veterinary Technology.  I enjoy and inspire to provide the highest quality of veterinary care for our patients and to keep your pets healthy and happy so you can enjoy their companionship.  While I'm not fulfilling my obligation to all Countryside critters, I enjoy relaxing at the cabin with Henry, my closest comrade (English Setter) and spending time with family and friends.

Marissa Urban, RVT:
Hi, my name is Marissa Urban.  I have always loved working with animals and enjoyed the interaction so much that I decieded to pursue a career in Veterinary Technology. I graduated from Colby Community College in 2005 with a degree in Veterinary Technology and came back to work in Wichita .  After a couple of moves I am very happy to be back in my hometown of Wichita and working at Countryside Pet Clinic.  I am kept busy in my free time with my full house of kids.  Nyx, my old lady Bullmastiff; Fat Boy, my grumpy Brussels Griffon; and my watch-kitty Nemo.  

Brandy Schulte, RVT
Hi, I’m Brandy and this is my cat Parker.  We met in Los Angeles in 1998 when she was just 8 weeks old.  It was during her first visit to the vet that I realized how much I would love working with animals.  I began working for a great clinic in 2000 where I was lucky to have several talented technicians as my role models. I started school a few months later and finally graduated from Los Angeles Pierce College with an Associates degree in Veterinary Technology in 2004.  In 2007, we moved to Wichita where I grew up.  Once again, I was lucky to land in a great clinic with a wonderful staff here at Countryside.  I really enjoy working in such a progressive environment.

Dallas Foster, Veterinary Assistant:
My name is Dallas Foster and I have been working at Countryside Pet Clinic since July of 2001. I live in Wichita with my fiancé and our "children" Toby our Lhasa, Zeus our Rotty mix and our new baby Atlas (one high spirited Lab).  We have 4 cats that "run" our house and 1 rat Athena, my bay girl.  I've had animals all of my life and love being able to work with them and get to know them as well as their owners.  I myself am in school to become a nurse, but for the meantime I enjoy every minute I get to help our pets.
