Diane
Practice Manager
About Diane
Diane started with Dr. Bergeron over 30+ years ago working as a kennel assistant. She literally “worked her way to the top” because she and Dr. B got married in 1998! She became a stay-at-home mom for their 3 children but her love for the animals brought Diane back when they were in middle school. She knows all aspects of the hospital and is always willing to lend a helping hand.
In her spare time, Diane enjoys spending time with her Dobermans Thor and Scarlet, and her newest addition a German Shepherd named Gamora, all of them rescues. Diane also enjoys fishing and participating in local 5k charity events.

About Anel
Starting her career in the animal field back in 2018 while working at a ranch in Davie, Anel also worked as a kennel technician taking care of puppies at a local pet shop. Her drive to work in the animal field brought her to our PVH family during the COVID years when the world shut down. Although only a few were able to ‘see’ her face to face due to our curbside service, many knew her friendly voice on the other side of the phone when calling in. As our main client service representative, Anel goes above and beyond to help our clients and has been a wonderful asset to PVH.
In her spare time, aside from shopping, Anel enjoys spending time with her array of pets including her dogs, Santo and JC, Spooky, her Netherland Dwarf bunny, and her collection of snakes!
