Our Veterinarians

Dr. Sankey graduated from University of Pennsylvania in 1986 and evolved his career throughout critical care and wellness hospitals, ultimately landing with us in 2012. His personal interests lie in soft tissue surgery, oral surgery, and long-term care. He has a particular soft spot for herding breeds, thanks to his loving Aussie, Freya.

Dr. Leonard graduated from University of Pennsylvania in 2009 and has worked in the Wyoming Valley ever since. His passions lie in pet dentistry / oral surgery, preventative medicine, and as boring at it seems to some... promoting pet insurance. His snuggly cats, Pickles and Relish keep him busy at home along with his bearded dragon, Sake.

Dr. Connie graduated with her DVM from Midwestern University in 2020 and quickly became a star clinician with her focus on internal medicine cases, pet dentistry, and preventative health. Her furbaby Frankie (pictured) is also a welcome addition to our team!

Dr. Yaple grew up in NY state, graduated with her veterinary degree in 2017 from Ross University in sunny St Kitts and made her way to NEPA to pursue Emergency and Critical Care Medicine. She joined our team in 2021 to expand her love of ECC while taking on family-style long-term care and as many puppies & kittens she can get her hands on!

Dr. Tyler Brzozowski is a proud Pennsylvania native, born and raised in Plains, PA. He is a 2024 graduate from Ross University School of Veterinary Medicine which is located on the gorgeous island of St. Kitts in the Caribbean, completing his clinical year at Colorado State University. His interests in veterinary medicine span across all species and include many specialties such as surgery and internal medicine. In his free time, he enjoys many hobbies including model railroading, hiking, fishing, videogames and of course spending time with his fur babies. He has a beautiful yellow lab named Piper, and two adorable cats, Jaxson and Greyson. He is excited and privileged to be providing my veterinary services to my hometown communities!
