Our Veterinary Team
Dr. Mary Suchowiecki
The Animal Medical Centre in New York City provided Dr. Mary Suchowiecki with a 13-month internship in small animal medicine and surgery after she graduated from Tufts University School of Veterinary Medicine in 1994. In 2001, she joined Just Cats.
She has a natural liking for cats and has won a prize for excellence in veterinary care for felines. She has also written for Cat Fancy magazine, which acknowledged her as an authority on all things feline.
She is passionate about three things; the Detroit Lions, her large patient and clientele base, and her family.
She is always loved back by two of the three.
Dr. Sasha Gibbons
A graduate of California’s Western University of Health Sciences College of Veterinary Medicine is Dr. Sasha Gibbons. Her original goal in attending veterinary school was to specialize in huge cats and exotic animals. She joined Just Cats in 2009 due to her passion for all things cat-related and the advantages of working with just cats.
Dr. Gibbons is an active participant in the Veterinary Information Network, the American Association of Feline Practitioners, and the American Veterinary Medical Association. She is frequently consulted for her knowledge of felines, and her articles have been featured in a number of journals, such as Cat Fancy.
She presently resides in New York with her husband, six cats, a sizable collection of Hello Kitty, and a little closet.
Dr. Amanda Bemis
The St. George’s University School of Veterinary Medicine graduated Dr. Amanda Bemis. At the University of Illinois, she finished her year of clinical training. She became well-known at veterinary school as “the cat person” due to her long involvement in cat rescues.
In addition to being a member of the American Veterinary Medical Association and The Veterinary Information Network, Dr. Bemis joined Just Cats in 2020. She is from New Jersey and often spends time with her two cats, Noodle and Charlie, as well as her family.
She frequently spends her leisure time in the kitchen preparing something. Her amazing baking abilities are attested to by our personnel, who get to sample her cookies.
Dr. Valerie Paris
Originally from Rochester, NY, Dr. Paris has long been involved in animal welfare and currently serves as Chair of the Grant Writing Committee for Pet Adoption Network, where she has volunteered for many years. She has also participated in international service trips with Christian Veterinary Mission in Honduras and hopes to continue that work in the future.
Dr. Paris is a proud member of the American Association of Feline Practitioners (AAFP), the American Veterinary Medical Association (AVMA), and the Veterinary Information Network (VIN), where she remains committed to ongoing learning and collaboration with peers.
Outside the clinic, she enjoys exploring the outdoors, cooking, being active in her church community, and caring for her ever-growing collection of houseplants. At home, she shares her life with two cherished cats. Dr. Paris is thrilled to be part of the Just Cats team and is grateful for the mentorship and camaraderie she’s found within the EverVet network.
