Gabriella, Veterinary Assistant

A native of East Northport, Gabriella grew up just five minutes from the Veterinary Center of East Northport. She first joined the team as an intern while earning her Bachelor of Science in Health Sciences from Hofstra University. She always envisioned a career helping people in a healthcare setting, her experience at the practice revealed a true passion for caring for animals and supporting the families who love them. That passion inspired her to pursue a career in veterinary medicine.

Gabriella shares her home with a lively group of pets, including Noodle, her goofy Doberman; Otto, a food-loving Shepherd mix; Tink, a bossy Miniature Schnauzer; and two cats, Buttons and Stitch. She has always been known as the “Snow White” of her family, with a lifelong love of caring for rescued, stray, and exotic animals—never hesitating to help an animal in need.

Outside of the hospital, Gabriella enjoys training her “trick pony” (her Doberman), paddleboarding to enjoy the beautiful long island waters, hiking with her dogs, and traveling with her girlfriend.
