Ashlee Johnson
Veterinary Assistant
I'm Ashlee Johnson, a Vet Assistant at Lincoln Hills Veterinary Hospital. I have had a passion for working with animals throughout my life and went through schooling to get my experience and knowledge before getting more hands-on work in the field. I have been dedicated to my work for about 4 years, and now I am on the road to gain my RVT license as well. I can't wait to engage with this amazing community and take care of each furry friend we come across.
