My name is Dr. Stephen Chmaitelli, Veterinarian at ETVMC. Check out my bio.
 

My name is Shannon Warner I grew up in Amarillo, Texas. In March, 2007, I moved to Carthage and joined the team at ETVMC. As Office Manager, I work closely with Dr. Chmaitelli, as well as the entire team, to create and maintain high standards in pet health care and client education in our community. When I'm not hard at work I enjoy playing in the mud and trail riding with my fiance' in his 4X4 mud truck. (This ain't your daddy's mud truck!) Rock crawler and street rod are in the building stages!! We have a beautiful brindle Bull Mastiff named "Bonnie" and 2 cats "Cammie," and "Carmella." Throughout my career working in the pet industry, I've been a part of some outstanding clinics, but none compare to what I've found in this small East Texas town of Carthage.

My name is Amanda Banister, and I have been working for ETVMC since April, 2007. I am the receptionist and I enjoy every minute of it. I really enjoy working with animals and people, so I pretty much have it made. I have 2 dogs of my own. Kouder is a Rat Terrier and is 3 years old. Roxie is a Doberman Pincher that is about 1 1/2 years old. What a mixture...I know! I really enjoy spending time with my family and my friends. My husband and I are expecting our first baby in January. We are very excited. I hope that I have many more years to come at ETVMC with Dr. Chmaitelli and the staff!

My name is Joy Jones. I am a Veterinary Assistant at ETVMC and really enjoy working here. I have lived outside of Timpson for 16 years. I have 2 dogs, "Bonnie, a Border Collie, "Indy" the farm dog, my barn cat "Sam" and my 3 year old American Quarter Horse, "Zip the Blonde Doc." Between school and work I enjoy training and showing my horse in 4H, AQHA and the NRHA.

My name is Angela Cummings. I am the lead Veterinary Assistant at ETVMC. I have a bachelor's degree from Tarleton State University in Animal Production with a focus on Equine Reproduction. I have trained and shown Quarter Horses for most of my life in many different disciplines. I had the privilege of showing cutting horses for a few years traveling across the United States. Now with 2 young children, I decided to down-size and raise Quarter Ponies and Registered Welsh Ponies for Playdays and Jumpers. I truly love my job and believe in the saying, "If you love what you do, you never work a day in your life." I was a client of ETVMC for 3 years and decided to become part of this wonderful team. Thank you for choosing us to care for your pet!

My name is Brandi Grappe'. I started working at ETVMC at the beginning of June, 2008. I am a Kennel Assistant and enjoy every minute of it. I've learned so much, even though I have just begun. It is wonderful because my dream is to become a veterinarian, and I hope to be as successful as Dr. Chmaitelli. I've lived in Carthage my entire life and just graduated from Carthage High School. I am 18 years old and am the daughter of Amanda Grappe'. I was the 2007 Panola County Cattleman's Association Rodeo Queen. So you can only imagine how much I enjoy riding horses. I have 2 dogs, "Princess," a Shih Tzu, and "Shelbi," a Lab. Both are full of joy! I love working with Doc and all the staff and all his many patients.

My name is Adrienne Breaux. I am married and have 3 beautiful boys. I am from Southwest Louisiana, but I moved here about two years ago. I started working at ETVMC 7 months ago and have found this job to be a very rewarding experience. I love what I do and am learning new things every day.
