Dr. Kryssi Griffin

Kryssi Griffin accomplished her undergraduate education at the University of Massachusetts, Amherst, studying Animal Science.  She continued on to obtain her veterinary degree at Saint Georges University in Grenada, West Indes.
Her favorite part of being a veterinarian is having the opportunity to serve the community and make a difference in people's (and their pets') lives.  She specializes in geriatric / end of life care as well as urgent care, though she loves caring for animals of all ages and walks of life.
In her free time, she enjoys time with her two children, camping, hiking,  yoga, paddle boarding and dance.  She also loves spending time with her 14 year old dog, two cats and bearded dragon.
