  • Felicia "Flea"

    Flea has been working in the veterinary field since 2006, joining Wise and Wonderful in 2012. She is dedicated to expanding her knowledge in medicine and forwarding the bond between people and animals. Working at Wise and Wonderful has allowed her to work closely with the community. As part of an exceptional veterinary team, Flea takes pride in empowering pet owners to help their companions enjoy longer, healthier lives.

  • Richard

    Practice Manager

    Richard is the proud dog dad of the Frenchie duo Fergus and Vincenzo. His support of fear-free practices and integrative medicine began when his Boxer Lulah was diagnosed with brain cancer with a limited prognosis. While recognizing allopathic medical treatment was in the best interest of extending Lulah's life, Richard and Dr. Power opted for combining radiation therapy with integrative modalities to alleviate the side effects of her rigorous treatment; she lived for many more years!

    When not assisting his husband, Dr. Power, and the doctors and staff of Wise and Wonderful provide the best healthcare to our patients, Richard provides support to the practice’s clients, often facing difficult situations with elderly and ill companions.

    Richard is an Elite Fear Free Certified Professional.
