Dr. Cassandra Heath
Veterinarian
Dr. Heath (like the candy bar!) grew up on a farm one hour west of Lincoln. She knew that she wanted to be a part of this profession after riding along with the local veterinarian during career day in high school. She watched him treat an injured alpaca, and realized that this lifelong journey was what she wanted to embark on. Dr. Heath will celebrate 10 years as a veterinarian in May of 2024. She says that her husband and two daughters have been an intricate part of this journey along the way. Communicating treatment and preventative wellness plans are very important in patient care and she takes pride in guiding owners in the best way to care for their pets. When taking off the stethoscope at the end of the day, she enjoys camping and spending time with friends and family!

Quasso
Clinic Cat
Hi! My name is Quasso! My friends at Superior Veterinary Care adopted me in October of 2024 when I was about six weeks old. I survived a raccoon attack and am now the most energetic and playful kitten you'll ever meet! Please don't laugh if you see my one strangely-shaped pupil; it was a result of my attack, but it doesn't slow me down at all! I now have a great home, and I love being a clinic kitten! I get all the snuggles, food, and attention I'd always hoped for!

I love grooming and enjoy pampering pets and helping them feel their best with a brand-new look. I truly love all animals.
