What a nice kitty! Back to TopDr. Jason P TarabrellaDr. Tarabrella is a fellow graduate of The Ohio State University College of Veterinary Medicine and has been a practicing veterinarian since 1999. He has a special interest in veterinary dental health. While he would not qualify himself as solely a dog or cat person, Dr. Tarabrella feels he has a special understanding of the feline psyche. While some might shy away from the difficult feline patient, he does not. In addition, Dr. Tarabrella enjoys all aspects of small animal medicine and surgery as well as working with exotics, such as small mammals (rabbits, guinea pigs, and hamsters) and reptiles. Dr. Tarabrella resides in Middletown with his loving wife Aimee and beautiful daughter Meadow. His cherished pets include a handsome Boxer (Syrus), a Mastiff Mix (Emma), one tailless black cat (Lewis), and many tropical fish. His goal is to spend extra time with you and your pet in order to be sure that all of your pets' healthcare needs are addressed. Dr. Tarabrella enjoys spending time with his family, being outdoors, and playing golf. Being from western Pennsylvania, he is first and foremost a Steelers fan. Although he enjoys seeing the Bengals win when they are not playing the Steelers. He's not all bad though because he still bleeds scarlet and grey, Go Bucks!
Back to TopDr. Laura M AringtonOur newest addition is Dr. Laura M. Arington. Dr. Arington hails from a small family farm in Illinois which influenced her decision to become a veterinarian. Prior to obtaining her Doctorate of Veterinary Medicine from Illinois, she graduated with a Bachelor of Science in Agriculture from Murray State University. Dr. Arington worked at the Colerain Animal Clinic for 5 years prior to joining our staff in December 2007. She is very excited to a member of our team and looks forward to working with the Monroe community. Dr. Arington resides in Cincinnati with her husband Brent. Currently their family consists of Cammie (bullmastiff), Mishu (shih-tzu), and two cats - Smitty and Squiggy. They enjoy a variety of outdoor activities such as hiking, camping, white water rafting, playing softball, and ultimate Frisbee. They especially enjoy traveling to places where they can explore the surroundings and play on the beach. When weather prohibits outdoor activities, Dr. Arington enjoys reading a good novel or watching movies. .
