Laboratory Services Staff
We have a well-equipped laboratory so that most tests can be done promptly, thus avoiding response and mail delays from outside laboratories. We can treat your pets faster and more accurately, with the state of the art equipment we have on the premises.
Diane Schuette
Laboratory Director
Diane grew up on a farm in Minnesota. After graduation from high school, she attended the Medical Institute of Minnesota and worked for several years in a small animal and a mixed (large and small) animal practice.
In December of 1986, she packed her belongings and headed east to work at WVMC. Fifteen years ago she took over the responsibility of running our in-house laboratory.
Over the years, Diane has done volunteer work teaching Red Cross pet first aid courses, and helping with local rabies clinics. For seven years she was a volunteer technician for the Iditarod Dog Sled Race in Alaska. Diane resides in Lehighton and shares her home with “Maude”, a very vocal Siamese cat and a mixed breed dog “Rock”.
