Dr. Zack Morgan earned his Doctorate in Veterinary Medicine from the National Autonomous University of Mexico in Mexico City. After receiving his license, he worked in several local veterinary hospitals and in 1993 founded and opened El Camino Veterinary Hospital, a full-service hospital and became a member of the American Animal Hospital Association. In January of 2018, a complete remodel was started and completed that June to better serve our growing clientele and to have more work space.
Dr. Morgan has been active in the Sacramento Valley Veterinary Medical Association, president in 1996, a member of the California Veterinary Medical Association, and has served on many committees both on the local and state level. Since 2015, he has been on the board of directors for the Sacramento Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, and was past president of the board from 2019-2021.
Dr. Morgan was raised in Sacramento, Arden Park, attended the local schools, and enjoyed all of the outdoor activities this area has to offer. Outside his work hours, which he is now semi-retired from practice but also still works on the business, Dr. Morgan enjoys fly fishing, traveling, gardening, exercising, and learning photography.
When asked about his work, Dr. Morgan reflects on how it has been an honor that I have been able to make a living doing what I love. “It’s a gift I have appreciated more and more as the time has gone by and for the people whom I know, whom I have never met that have trusted me and my staff for the care of their family members. It is now my responsibility to continue and fulfill that trust with the best veterinary care the doctors and staff of El Camino Veterinary Hospital can offer every time.”
Hello, my name is Pamela, I’ve been working in the Veterinary field since 2007. I started as a Kennel Assistant and moved up to Receptionist. I have also worked, helped start, and grow a Lodging/Daycare and Grooming Facility for 9 years.
When I’m away from work I really enjoy family time with my son. I love being outdoors with him and showing him new things.
I joined this amazing team in November, 2017. I now look forward to helping you and your furry family members at El Camino Veterinary Hospital.
My name is Lilly Teeter and I am a Veterinary Assistant. I have an Associate degree in Veterinary Technology and 12 years experience working in veterinary clinics. I joined the team at ECVH May 2021. Outside of work, I spend my time with my children, pets and plants.
I started working in the Veterinary Profession in 1997 as an ROP student my Senior year in high school. I started out as a Kennel Assistant, then Receptionist, then Veterinary Assistant, and now a Practice Manager. I love my job and can’t imagine myself doing anything else. Currently my animal family consists of our cat, Mr. Bigglesworth, and our dog Xara a German Shepherd. I joined the wonderful team at El Camino Veterinary Hospital in April 2016. In my spare time I enjoy spending quality time with my husband, going to the gym, hiking, biking, kayaking, camping, wine/beer tasting, horse back riding, and scuba diving.
My name is Janice I graduated with an Associates Degree from the Veterinary Technology program at Cosumnes River College in May 2016. I passed the test and acquired my Registered Veterinary Technician license in October 2018. I have been with the ECVH family since August 2016 and have enjoyed learning new things ever since. In my spare time, I enjoy watching horror movies/tv shows and lounging around with my cat, Sash.
I spent a majority of my childhood in Colorado. Nature and wildlife have been a big part of my life. Some of my fondest memories are of times I spent in the mountains quietly observing wild animals. I moved to study Biology and Asian Studies in college. Happily, I also met my husband during that time. Later we lived in Pennsylvania with our two sons while he finished his medical training. While there, I worked at ZooAmerica. I enjoyed providing care and enrichment for the many kinds of animals that were in our education department. I even trained Hoover, a vulture, to fly and perch on my gloved hand.
In 2009, we moved to Sacramento, CA, so that I could pursue a degree in veterinary medicine. Before applying to veterinary school, I volunteered at the California Raptor Center and worked in clinical research studying anesthetics and analgesia in cats, birds and rabbits. In 2015, I graduated from UC Davis School of Veterinary Medicine, with an emphasis in small animal, exotics and zoo medicine. Since then I have worked in private practice. I enjoy providing veterinary care for dogs, cats, rabbits and other small mammals, reptiles and birds.
Outside of work, I hike with my family and two dogs. I spend time with our other family pets, nicknamed “The Tiedeken Zoo,” that includes tortoises, parrots, parakeets, rats and fish. I also work on the family cars and love going to the gym
I started in the veterinary field as an assistant while completing my Bachelors in Biology with an emphasis in Zoology from SDSU in 2006.
After graduating I moved back to Sacramento to attend Cosumnes River College Technician Program. I initially came to ECVH during my internship in 2010 and was hired on before completing the program and receiving my RVT license in 2011. I have a special interest in dentistry and anesthesia. When I’m not working I love to spend time with my husband, my 2yr old son, our 2 German Shepherds and 2 cats.
My name is Michael Cashion and I have always wanted to work in the veterinary field, but never had until I joined the ECVH team in February 2020. I couldn’t be happier working with this team of mentors. I am currently working as a kennel assistant and am constantly trying to gain more knowledge so that I can eventually become a veterinary technician. I am married and have 3 children. I have always had dogs and other pets and currently have Callie (lhasa apso mix) and Luna (lab/aussie mix). I enjoy spending time with my family. We love to camp together and also love to hang out at the pool in the summer and skiing in the winter. I look forward to caring for your fur and/or exotic babies.
