Karen Roach, RVT VTS (Emergency/Critical Care)

Karen is originally from the East Coast of Canada and  graduated from the Nova Scotia Agricultural College's Animal Health Technology program in 1994. In 1997, after working for several years in private practice, she accepted a position with the newly opened Metro Animal Emergency Clinic in Halifax, Nova Scotia, which was the first after hours veterinary emergency clinic to open in Atlantic Canada.

In 2000, she completed a one year Veterinary Technician Internship at The Animal Medical Center in New York City. It was here that a keen interest in anesthesia, and emergency and critical care medicine began. After completing the internship, Karen returned to Halifax, Nova Scotia and the Metro Animal Emergency Clinic, and eventually began working toward becoming a Veterinary Technician Specialist in Emergency/Critical Care. She completed this designation in 2013, and in June 2014, left her native Canada to become part of the team at NorthStar Vets.
