About Revel Vet
No matter how long they’re with us, they outlive us.
Our pets don’t live long enough. There we said it. But while they’re here, they’re going to have the best darn lives they can. That’s our perspective — one shared by our Vets and staff (because we’re making sure they have amazing lives too) — and we’ll just bet you feel the same.
Your dog’s not just happy to see you. Your cat doesn’t somewhat enjoy that string you’re wiggling. Our pets are out-of-their-minds happy. Even when they’re sleeping, they’re having a better time than we are.
We built a new kind of Vet hospital around that idea — and everything we do, from the way we treat our staff to the advanced care we give your pets (and you) is designed to keep these amazing creatures as amazingly healthy as they can be.
The best team ever
Dr. Sarah Gornall, FFCP
Associate VeterinarianHello, I’m Dr. Sarah! I graduated veterinary school in 2019 but have been obsessed with animals and veterinary medicine since I was a young child. My professional interests include preventative care, internal medicine, client education, and improving the human-animal bond. I want you and your pet to have the best lives together possible!
I share my home with my husband and our three dogs, Tucker, Thea, and Toby. I love traveling and going on adventures, especially when the dogs can join in on the fun. I also enjoy spending time outside in the sunshine whether it’s relaxing with a book, walking, hiking, golfing, or gardening. I am so excited to be a part of the Revel team and to help you feel empowered about your pet’s health!

After years of caring for pets in Queen Creek and San Tan Valley, I’ve developed a passion for dermatology, helping pets with skin issues, allergies, and ear infections feel their best.

Laurie, FFCP
Practice ManagerHey, it’s Laurie! My best friend’s mom (since kindergarten) owned an animal hospital and that started to spark my lifelong love for and curiosity with animals. I volunteered all of my free time as a kid until I was old enough to work; I wanted to learn everything there was to know about caring for animals!
My family is my world. I live with my amazing husband, 2 sons and my rescue love – a Pitbull named Shelby Sue. We love to spend our family time outdoors seeking adventure on our side-by-side or dirt bikes. I personally find the greatest joy in fishing!
I am so excited to be working with such amazing people at Revel Vet. I have always loved working with people and taking care of their fur babies and am truly grateful to be a part of this team.

I am passionate about educating clients so they feel comfortable and confident in making decisions and moving forward with their pets.
I am also a wife, a mom to an elementary school son, and, of course, a pet owner. We share our home with Chester (a Pitt mix) and 2 cats, Jasper and Pixel. I love going for walks, spending time with my loved ones and exploring new places.

This passion led me to pursue a fulfilling career in veterinary care, where I’m grateful to be doing what I love every day. I have a special place in my heart for every breed – each one is a favorite!
Outside of work, I’m a proud mother to three daughters and a grandmother to three wonderful grandchildren, who are truly my everything. My family also includes my beloved pets: a Rat Terrier, a Boston Terrier, and my newest addition, an Irish Doodle.
In my spare time, I enjoy live music and riding motorcycles, always looking for new adventures.
Erica, FFCP
Veterinary TechnicianI’m Erica and I have been working in the veterinary field since 2007. I took a five year hiatus to raise my son at home, but couldn’t stay away! I love that Veterinary Medicine is a challenge on many levels, and I love being an advocate for animals, as they do not have a voice. Being an aid in their healing means more than I can describe. There is something very special about animals.
My son is my world- I am grateful for him each day. Outside of work I like to relax. I also enjoying going camping, and being outdoors when the weather is nice. In my spare time, you will find me spending time with loved ones, being creative, drawing, and reading.

My recent experience in emergency medicine has provided countless moments of compassion, learning, and miracles, which have only strengthened my love for this field.
Though I don’t have any pets of my own, I’m surrounded by five family pets: three German shepherds (Shadow, Kennedy, and Zena), a border collie mix (Diesel), and a horse (Diva). Outside of work, you’ll find me binge-watching true crime or paranormal shows with plenty of snacks, reading in bed for hours, or staying active with Orange Theory. While I’m more of an indoors person, I’m dedicated to making a difference for every animal I meet.

Bobbi, FFCP
Veterinary TechnicianI’m a veterinary technician here at Revel, working part-time but fully dedicated to taking care of our furry friends! With 22 years in the field, I’ve done it all—general practice, shelter work, spay/neuter, and emergency/critical care.
At home, it’s like we’re a modern-day Partridge family! Myself and my other half have 6 kids total, and 1 grandchild! We also have our own zoo of pets, including four pitties, one chihuahua mix, two cats, two ball pythons, one corn snake, one chameleon, a bearded dragon, and a lively saltwater fish tank.
When I’m off the clock, I love hanging out at home, firing up the BBQ with family, and hitting the lakes with our kayaks and paddleboards.
What really lights me up is making sure pets feel their best. Whether it’s keeping them healthy or helping them feel better when they’re sick, seeing them happy again is the best part of the job!

Kirsten, FFCP
Client Service RepresentativeHi, I’m Kirsten, I have been working in the Veterinary field since 2014. I have worked as a licensed technician but found that working as a Client Service Representative combines my knack for working with people and my passion for animals.
My husband and I moved here from the Seattle area in 2017 and thoroughly enjoy the sunshine we see in Arizona every day. We have a small zoo at home: 3 dogs (Blackjack, Beefy, and Kalliope), our cat Gary and 3 small tortoises (Edgar, Elvis, and Eloise).
Outside of work we like to kayak, float in our pool (and play pool), play pickleball, throw darts and listen to music. As we are from Washington we are huge Seattle Seahawk fans, my newest interest is Fantasy Football and I manage several teams each year. GO HAWKS!
I am so proud to be a member of the Revel Vet team and look forward to meeting you and your adorable pet.
Marci, FFCP
Veterinary AssistantI am a Veterinary Assistant. I’ve worked in the field for four months and prior did two years of vet assistant school as well as a lot of volunteering at rescues.
I have two babies! Luna, my Chihuahua, Dachshund, Terrier mix, and Winona, my Rottweiler. I love to color, watch new dystopian movies, and travel to different cities!
What I’m most passionate about when it comes to my job is learning something new every single day. Everyone has new techniques, and having a great support system around you really helps you get through the day and also gain confidence and experience in this field. What I’m most excited about at Revel is the team that has so much love for each other and the unlimited support.
I am currently in school right now in undergrad at ASU majoring in pre-veterinary medicine with a goal of becoming a veterinarian!

Kennel AssistantHi, I’m Tessa, a Kennel Assistant at Revel Vet. Although I’m new to the veterinary field, this role marks the exciting first step toward achieving my lifelong dream of becoming a veterinarian. Caring for animals has always been my passion, and I’m thrilled to begin my journey in vet medicine.
At home, I have two dogs—a pit bull and a pit bull-lab mix—who keep life fun and full of energy. Outside of work, I enjoy hiking, bone hunting, playing video games, and getting lost in a good book. Horror is my favorite genre, and I’m always on the lookout for a new scary story to dive into.
Ali, FFCP
Veterinary TechnicianI bring over four years of experience in veterinary medicine, along with several years of volunteering at animal shelters during high school. Caring for animals has always been a huge part of who I am. Growing up in the Philippines, I regularly rescued kittens and puppies and helped care for a variety of animals, including dogs, chickens, and goats, which only deepened my passion for animal care.
Now, my husband and I share our home with a lively crew of pets: a 50-gallon fish tank, a five-foot ball python named Mochi, a leopard gecko named Poe, a dog named Brisket, and two cats named Soysauce and Fiona. Outside of work, I enjoy fishing, hiking, drawing, reading, and gardening.
What excites me most about veterinary medicine — and about being part of Revel Vet — is the opportunity to provide compassionate, high-quality care and help every animal feel safe and cared for.
Garrett, FFCP
Veterinary AssistantHi, I’m Garrett. I’ve been a Vet Assistant for a year and a half after completing my Vet Assistant certification and recently graduating from Pima Medical Vet Technician school. I love that I get to have a career that pairs my love of animals with my love of science.
At home I have two English Springer Spaniels, Cooper and Harper, and a rescue lab mix named Brando. I also adopted a leopard gecko named Vincent Van Gecko. Currently I spend most of my time either working or studying for my CVT exam, but I do enjoy gaming and going to CA to visit family.
Some of my favorite things about this job are supporting animals through procedure recovery and participating in treatments that help them recover from illness. Preventative treatments such as vaccines and dental health and procedures, as well as anything lab testing are at the top of my list of things I love doing in my job.
I’m excited to join the Revel Vet team and look forward to growing my knowledge, skills, experience, and confidence and doing my part to bring comfort and a fear free atmosphere to all the pets that come into our care.

I love helping animals live healthier, happier lives, and I feel fortunate to do work that makes a difference every day. 🐾❤️
Jordyn, FFCP
Client Service RepresentativeHello! I’m Jordyn. I’ve been in veterinary medicine since 2018. I started as an ER technician, and after five years I moved to the front desk so I could connect face to face with pet owners. I knew veterinary medicine was my passion and the career for me, and I hope to keep growing in this field.
A little about me: I have a wonderful husband, four cats and two dogs. We have a Rottweiler mix named Knox and a Frenchie named Weeman. I rescued a Bengal named Zeus, and we also have Steve-O, Theo and Janie. My animals are my absolute world! I also love exotic pets, but my husband says no. Someday I’ll convince him!
When I’m not at work, I love reading horror books and thrillers. My husband and I enjoy movie nights, and we go to concerts and Supercross every year!
Revel Vet isn’t just a workplace for me; it has become a home away from home. I spend a lot of time with my coworkers, and I feel so lucky to have an amazing rapport with every one of them. We all connect through our passion for helping others and their fur babies!
Hailey
TechnicianHi, I’m Hailey! I’ve been working in the veterinary field for the past four years, and my passion for animals has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. Working in veterinary medicine has allowed me to turn that passion into a career while continuing to learn and grow every day.
Outside of work, I’m surrounded by animals! I currently have four dogs and three cats, so caring for animals is a big part of both my professional and personal life. I especially enjoy getting to know each patient and helping pets feel as comfortable, safe, and cared for as possible.
The people behind this new idea
Dr. Kris Latson
Hi, I’m Dr. Latson, but your dog can call me Kris. My first love was a dog named Skippy and after a few years of playing “Pet Vet” as a child, I knew that working as a veterinarian was my life’s calling.
Having spent 17 years working as a veterinarian at clinics across the American West, I know firsthand that burnout and compassion fatigue are real problems for veterinary staff, but I also witnessed pet owners never feeling like they were doing “enough” for the animals they share their home with.
As I ventured into multiple entrepreneurial pursuits and became a mom to two amazing boys, I realized that something needed to be done.
We needed to be having conversations about how we are enough.
So fast forward (because who likes reading someone’s resume online?!) to Revel Vet, which is the sum of my experiences and everything I wish I had while working as a vet at other practices and also as a real-life human bringing my beloved pets into vet clinics.
I hope that you enjoy every part of your experience at Revel Vet and always know that you are enough, today, just as you are!
Feel free to let me know how your visit was, I love hearing from fellow pet owners!
Dr. Keith Latson
Hi, I’m Keith. I have decades of experience working in animal health as a veterinarian, an NBC sports veterinary spokesperson for the Kentucky Derby and building multiple companies to help elevate animal health and veterinary brands.
While my professional life has been colorful and dynamic, my greatest accomplishment is my family. My wife, Kris, our two boys and I are a tight-knit group and we travel around the country together as we work and play.
Some of our favorite activities include skiing, hiking, fly-fishing – basically anything we can do outdoors – we are there!
After 20 years of serving as a veterinarian while launching and scaling animal health businesses, it became wildly apparent that something needed to change to make the industry, our veterinary profession and the amazing people who serve our animals more sustainable.
So we got to work and are so excited to bring Revel Vet into the world! We are doing veterinary medicine differently, so please know that you can always reach me here. And if you want to add in your favorite destination or view to see in Arizona, I am always taking recommendations!
Dr. Scott Meyer
Hey, I’m Dr. Scott. If you live in Queen Creek, you might recognize me as the owner and veterinarian behind Desert Mountain Equine.
My passion for equine sports medicine has taken me all over the world and has granted me the opportunity to work on elite racehorses such as American Pharoah and California Chrome.
While horses have been a huge part of my career, I have been so excited to open Revel Vet in collaboration with my co-founders. After all, what horse person doesn’t also own a dog or cat?!
When I’m not at work, I’m spending time with my wife, Julie, and our 2 kids in the outdoors – camping and fishing.
I look forward to getting to know our town’s community of pet owners.
Julie Meyer
Hello, my name is Julie. I am a Registered Nurse serving the greater communities of the Phoenix area in Arizona. My areas of expertise are in Internal Medicine, Alzheimers’/ Dementia Care, and Liver and Kidney Transplant for which I served at Banner Good Samaritan Hospital.
I am grateful for the opportunity to have served in the hospital during the last couple years and to have grown with the medical community in such a time of change and challenge. What a time to be a nurse!
I am a mom to two beautiful, energetic and insightful kiddos that keep me very busy, as well as wife to my husband, Dr. Scott, who owns Desert Mountain Equine.
I am a lover of all things outdoors and water; I enjoy surfing, wakeboarding, Ladies Lake Day with local moms, fly fishing and spending time and making memories with family and friends.
We are excited to bring Revel Vet to our local neighbors and look forward to growing our community of fellow pet lovers!
