HOSPITAL SUPERVISOR


Lynda Wysong

Lynda Wysong is originally from Long Island, New York and moved to Florida at the age of 7. Lynda earned her Bachelor’s degree, in Biology, at Warner University. She has always had an interest in the medical field. Her mother was a nurse and Lynda loved to hear medical stories. Moreover, Lynda has a strong interest in animals. This combo works well at All Pet Care Hospital. Lynda has been with All Pet Care Hospital since 2009, her current position is Hospital Supervisor. She loves the bond that the All Pet Care team has and thrives on seeing positive growth. She helps the hospital where needed with the clients, patients, as well as behind the scenes.

She comes from a large family with 13 aunts and uncles (on her mother’s side) and too many cousins to count (still growing to this day). She also has 4 siblings, one of which is her fraternal twin sister. Her mother was her inspiration to work hard and to love unconditionally. Lynda is married to Matthew Wysong and they have been together since 2000. Together they have 3 canine kids of their own. Their names are Colt, Knala, and Cocoa. Colt (born in 2003) has endured a lot throughout life which includes stomach twisting (corrected through emergency surgery), laryngeal paralysis (corrected through surgery), and diabetes insipidus (a rare disease treated with medication). Although life has been tough, he still lives life to the fullest; his favorite activities are swimming and playing Frisbee (in which he prefers to do at the same time). Her middle child, Knala (born in 2005), was born with bad hip dysplasia and has undergone a cruciate repair and has such bad arthritis that you can hear when she moves. Laser Therapy helped her recover from the cruciate repair and it helps her arthritis feel better. Dr. Rixford is currently studying acupuncture and is working on Knala’s arthritis for practice. So far she is receptive to the treatment. Cocoa (the baby of the family, born in 2009) has a luxating patella in which does not slow her down, especially when it comes to playing fetch. Since they all have bone and joint issues, they are all on j/d food (joint diet). Lynda also enjoys being with her family and friends as much as possible.
