Kellie Ketenchiev
Veterinary Receptionist

Kellie
Kellie joined the AFAH team in July of 2004. She came to us with several years of experience working as a medical receptionist, having previously worked for Health South, a pain management doctor and a very busy ophthalmologist.

A Midwest native, Kellie graduated from Whitewater High School in Wisconsin in 1989. After graduation, she attended the University of Rock County for general studies and then transferred to the Gateway Technical College. She earned her Nursing Assistant Certificate in 1990. Shortly after obtaining her certification, she attended Madison Area Technical College and earned an Administrative Assistant Diploma.

Kellie has definitely put her education to good use. Combining her administrative skills and love for medicine, she entered into a career in medical administration. After 6 years in the mainstream medical field, Kellie chose a new career path that combined her medical knowledge and her love for animals – she became a veterinary receptionist.

Kellie shares her home with her husband and two wild and crazy critters. Her goofy, loveable Boston Terrier puppy, Trooper, and a mischievous, beautiful, buff tabby Samson. They keep her on her toes with their antics and games of tag.

In her spare time Kellie enjoys spending time with her husband and pets. She also enjoys watching old movies and being outdoors - kayaking, hiking, and camping.

At work, Kellie’s coworkers appreciate her attention to detail and professional demeanor. Our clients have commented about her warm nature, friendly attitude, and her compassion towards their furry family members. We are definitely lucky to have Kellie on our team!
