Overview

Tara Animal Hospital is committed to providing excellent service to our clients. Our goal is to educate our clients, nurture the human-animal bond, and provide the optimal care for our patients

Dr. Gretchen Schlientz grew up in Liverpool, NY. Owning an animal hospital was her dream when, at 16 years old, she started her career in the veterinary field. Dr. Schlientz held many positions in veterinary medicine—initially starting as an animal caretaker and eventually became an office manager—prior to becoming a veterinarian. She attended St. Bonaventure University before studying veterinarian medicine at Ross University and the University of Illinois. She returned to Central New York to work before purchasing Tara Animal Hospital in October 2014 from Dr. Ken Hodgson
