Alexis Salazar

Hello, my name is Alexis and I have been working in the veterinary field for 10 years now.I knew working with animals was my calling since I was a child. I have 2 dogs ( Bowwz, and Ranger) and a guinea pig named Ian. I started working at Oak Hills in 2006, and since then became a wife to my husband Roger, and a mother to my almost 3 year old Aubrianna. After spending some time as a stay at home mom, I returned April 20th 2012, to the only animal hospital my pets and I call home. It's great to be back!
