Renee Adams
|
|
Receptionist
|
|
Our full time lead receptionist, Renee started work at LVH in 1995, which makes her almost a lifer! A native of angier, N.C., the nearest metropolis to Lillington, Renee worked for the NC DOT in Raleigh for 8 years prior to employment at our hospital. Renee always had a desire to work with animals, she currently runs her own pet-sitting company in addition to her work here. She has 3 dogs and 3 cats. She has been married since 1990 to a law enforcement officer who moonlights as a pro wrestler. Renee is the main squeeze at his wrestling events, and occasionally makes an appearance in the ring on his behalf. All these activities leave little time for much else besides her other love, softball.

Sheila Lewis
|
|
Head Veterinary Technician/Materials Management
|
|
Sheila was born in Catskill New York, but raised in Phoenix, Arizona, from the age of 6. She joined the Air Force in 1975 and was assigned to Pope AFB, NC as a Corrosion Control Specialist. She met her husband Bob, and had 3 children while in the Air Force-who said it couldn't be done-Sheila was a pioneer in this respect. She was honorably discharged in 1983 with the rank of Staff Sgt (E-5). After her 3 children began school, she started college at Central Carolina Community College, enrolled in the Veterinary Technology program. She graduated with honors in 1991 and received an Associated Degree in Applied Science. She passed the NC Veterinary Board exam to become a registered Veterinary Technician in June of 1991.
An active member of the NC Association of Veterinary Technincians, Sheila has been with the hospital since 1988. She supervises our hospital kennel and technical staff, devises our OSHA protocol, keeps track of the hospital inventories and is still the best with aiding the doctors!
She spends her free time keeping up with her pets (3 dogs, 4 cats, 4 ducks, 1 goose, 5 rabbits, and many fish) and attending CCCC working toward a degree in accounting. Flower gardening and remodeling her house are her favorite hobbies, along with keeping up with the active lives of her family. Obviously, Sheila has discovered the 30 hour day.
