Meet Our Staff

Please take a moment to get to know our staff. Each member of our team at Columbia Animal Clinic has taken the time to tell you a little about themselves.

Daniel J. Hill, DVM

When I was four years old, I started telling my family I was going to be a veterinarian, and I've stuck to that goal. I grew up in Jamestown in western New York and graduated from Ashland University (Ohio) in 2000. I am a 2009 graduate of the Ohio State University and spent the first year after graduation as a solo practitioner, substituting for a vet who was deployed to Kuwait. In 2010, I purchased the Columbia Animal Clinic and look forward to serving the area in the future.

I live in Strongsville and have a house with six cats and two dogs. When I am not working, I enjoy singing with my church choir, reading, hiking and camping.

Hiawatha (Eddie) Adams

I am the practice manager at Columbia Animal Clinic. Although you may not see me around the clinic very often, I am always behind the scenes supporting the staff and Dr. Hill. I have been with the Columbia Animal Clinic since October of 2010.

I have many years of experience in retail and administrative management. I thoroughly enjoy bringing that experience to Columbia Animal Clinic. I have a degree in Electrical Engineering Technology and have always focused on technology. I use this particular skill set to increase the medical technology available to Dr. Hill and the staff, and ultimately your pets’ health care.

I use my spare time to spend time with my 2 dogs. I am an avid video game player and I enjoy remodeling projects and woodworking. You can see my hobby throughout the clinic, I really enjoy finding ways to make our small clinic look better, be more inviting and run more efficiently.

Dianna

Hello! My name is Dianna. I have been employed with Columbia Animal Clinic since October of 2011. I graduated from Stautzenberger in 2012 with an Associates in Applied Science for Veterinary Technician. I am currently a veterinary assistant and the Office manager here at the clinic.

When I am not at the clinic, I am most likely to be found at home with my 2 dogs named Cooper and Jaxson, and my 2 cats Aidan and Morla.

I enjoy doing yard work around my home, learning new skills, and reading.

Anna N.

Hi! My name is Anna. I’m a recent addition (Feb 2019) to Columbia animal clinic. I graduated from Stautzenberger College in 2012 with my associate of applied science for veterinary technician and have been a registered veterinary technician since 2012 as well. In 2017, I decided to become a stay at home mom when my youngest was born. I’m very excited to get back in the swing of things and continue to pursue my passion for animals.

When I’m not at the clinic I enjoy spending time with my husband and our two children who are 4 and 2. We also have a chihuahua named Raiden, 3 cats (misty, Hazy, and Percy), and a turtle named Tempi.

In my spare time I like to read, go on hiking adventures, garden, and go to the zoo!

Layla M.

I was born and raised in Cleveland before I moved to North Olmsted where I currently reside. I am the second of five children and a lover of all animals, but most importantly of my own cats.

I have over three years of experience handling animals and as a receptionist. I earned a Bachelor's degree in Biology at CSU and I am working toward a certificate in veterinary technology.
