Dr. Richard Lester comes from a family of veterinarians including a veterinary pathologist and two equine veterinarians. Graduating from WSU College of Veterinary Medicine in 1999, Dr. Lester has always had the intention of working solely with cats and has been practicing at feline-only hospitals since graduation.

Dr. Zaback decided she wanted to be a veterinarian when she was 8 years old. She grew up outside of New Orleans and went on to receive her Doctorate of Veterinary Medicine from Louisiana State University in 2014. Looking for a change of scenery after graduation, she moved to the greater Seattle area and it didn’t take long for Washington to become her new home.
Dr. Zaback started her career working with exotic animals, then transitioned to dog and cat practice, but it’s no surprise to anyone that knows her that she ultimately decided on feline-only practice. Her interests include internal medicine, pain management, and wound care. Outside of work, Dr. Zaback loves roller skating, traveling, and cooking. She shares her home with her beloved cat, Yoda.
