Meet the Team

Suzi Minahan is the owner of Lakeside Animal Hospital. She leads the practice with deep respect for the team, the work, and the families who trust us with their pets.

My background has been grooming for the last 35+ years, so it was an easy transition to enter into veterinary medicine. During my off hours, I like working on projects, building things, and still groom dogs.

Dr. Marissa Gonzalez was born in Maryland and raised in Cinnaminson, New Jersey. She earned her Bachelor of Science in Nursing at Rutgers University in 1984.

I’m from West Bloomfield, MI. Completed undergrad at Michigan State University. Graduated from Purdue University College of Veterinary Medicine 2024. Special interest in dentistry.

Sam is currently a Certified Small Animal Veterinary Assistant. She is currently enrolled in a veterinary technician program through American Animal Hospital Association, and she plans to graduate in 2025.

Bio Coming Soon!

I have been in veterinary medicine for over 3 years. I have a super silly English Lab that is my world. I also love reading, and crocheting on my time off.
