Our Careteam

When Anne and her husband, Dr. Lonam, purchased Village Vet in 1987, her intention was to help get the practice organized and on its way, then continue on her own career path in landscape design. Very quickly she found herself more and more deeply entrenched in the practice. The business challenges were more daunting than she first realized.

Working at the clinic also gave Anne a chance to meld her biology background (Colgate University, 1978) with her business experience. She loved meeting new people and developing relationships with the clients and their families, and has always had a soft spot for animals. It’s a stimulating environment and one that provides constant learning opportunities. After 25 years in the business, she still derives a great deal of satisfaction from helping clients and their pets. Thanks to the wonderfully loyal client base that’s developed over the years, Anne and Dr. Lonam are still going strong and have been able to share their success with the community.

The Lonams have one son and a menagerie including cats, dogs, and birds. She is active with Matthew’s Boy Scout troop, enjoys community service projects, gardening, numerous outdoor activities, cultural events, visiting museums and traveling anywhere!
