Michelle Baker
My name is Michelle Baker, and I’m a registered veterinary technician at Hillside. I’ve been here for quite some time! I started out as an assistant in May of 2006 and obtained my Vet Tech license in 2008. I went to UC Raymond Walters, (UC Blue Ash) for my degree. I chose this career because animals have always been a big part of my life. I grew up on a farm with cows, chickens, and pigs. I always had a lot of cats, dogs, and even rabbits. Animals are definitely one of my passions. In my free time I love to sing! Whether it be singing karaoke somewhere, in church, for weddings, I love it! I’ve been married since June 2012 and my husband Brian and I have 1 son named Jett. He’s 6 years old and he’s a total blast and joy in our lives. We have 2 cats and 2 dogs. Greta and Tyson are the kitties, Mona and Cora are the dogs. They are mutts, but hey, that’s the best kind of dog! ;)

Nicole Steinbrunner
Hi, my name is Nicole Steinbrunner. I live in Williamsburg with my husband, Joe, and our furbaby Berni. My love of animals began at a young age when I wanted to care for every stray dog or cat that crossed my path. My family rescued our first pet when I was around 5 yrs old and I've always had at least on pet in my home ever since! I found Hillside Small Animal Hospital in 2015 through a friend of the family, they treated us with such warmth and compassion over the years that in February of 2020 I jumped at the chance to join the team. I am incredibly excited to be part of the HSAH family and look forward to finding out where this new adventure leads! In my spare time I can often be found reading, playing with my dog, cooking, or spending time with my family.

Hi my name is Mia McCammon. I’m currently enrolled at the University of Cincinnati Blue Ash to get my vet tech degree. I should be graduating in the spring of 2021! Pictured with me is my little dog Molly. She has inspired me to fulfill my career by showing so much unconditional love. I never knew I could love an animal so much. She has taught me so much and if it wasn’t for her I would not be working in the veterinary medicine. I enjoy working here at Hillside Small Animal Hospital because I am getting great experience as an assistant. The employees and doctors treat me like family and I have enjoyed my time here so far and look forward to my future here at the clinic.
