Andreah Burgener, Veterinary Assistant

I was born and raised in Marion but now live in Converse. I have a son named Bryan, with my fiance Brad. We worked together at Long John Silvers, my first job, in 2008 and have been together since. I have two Heeler mixes Kodiak "Kodi" and Atlas that are full brothers from separate litters. I also have three orange cats, Peanut, Skittles, and Ammo. I have three nieces and one nephew that I have helped raise. In my spare time I enjoy spending time with my family, camping, and watching my niece run with USATF. I have also lived in Missouri about an hour from Kansas City. I love working at Kem Road because I really enjoy meeting and getting to know all of our furry patients.
