Joseph Sholl: Joseph Sholl and family
Joseph Sholl joined the clinic in August 2009 as a receptionist.  He and his wife, Corella, share their home with two dogs, Bosco - a Pekinese/Silky Terrier mix - and Bella - a Silky Terrier.  In May of 2008, Joe and Corella welcomed their first child into their home.  Elijah loves to run around with Bosco and Bella and thinks they are hilarious, when they aren't stealing his toys.

Joe is currently attending school for Electrical Engineering and plans on pursuing a career in Biomedical Engineering with a focus on neuroengineering.  When he isn't working or doing homework, he likes going on walks with his family or just playing with Eli in his room.  Joe brings a variety of skills and experiences with him to Lakeview Veterinary Clinic that assist him in making your visit to our clinic as enjoyable as possible for you and your pets.


Cherie Brewster:

Cherie shares her house with her husband Tim, and 2 children, ReyAnn & Adrian , and assortment of dogs, cats, iguana's and any other critter that may sound interesting. :-)








Cynthia Shaw:


Cynthia joined Lakeview Veterinary Clinic in September 2008 as she is working on her degree at Bradley.  Her love of her Kitty, Stinkweed, makes for interesting conversation as we discuss our pets during staff meetings.

Cynthia helps out with our puppy aggression prevention classes and is looking forward to our kitten series as well.

Cynthia's time away from the clinic is spent on studying for her bachelor degree from Bradley.





Mallory Kelly, CVT: 

Mallory Kelly and her canine family (the cat did not want to participate)  Mallory has been at Lakeview Veterinary Clinic since March of 2003.  She took some time away from the practice full time to attend Parkland Community College in Champaign to obtain her Certified Veterinary Technician (CVT) degree in May 2007.    She enjoys sharing her knowledge with our clients to enhance their knowledge of their pets.

Mallory has four 'kids' at home, a Boxer named "Becca", a Pug named "Jeeves", a French Bulldog named "Satine", and a cat named "Murry".  She adopted "Becca" from a lady that was forced to move into an apartment and did not have the space for her anymore, "Jeeves" was a Christmas gift for her husband Mike, "Satine" was purchased from a pet shop, and "Murry" was a stray that started coming to her house and ended up staying.

In her free time, Mallory likes to play pool; she plays on two nine ball leagues, one with her husband and another with a group of friends. Having an affinity for horses, she enjoys any activities involving them. In the future, she hopes to move to a new house in the country where she can get a couple horses of her own.

We feel very blessed to have Mallory as part of our health care team.
