Learn Who We Are

  • Matt and Rosie
    Matt Putchat CVT
    Rehabilitation Therapist

     Matt received his Bachelor of Arts from West Virginia University in 1999. While back home in Quakertown, PA, working as a substitute teacher in the Palisades School District, and working as a veterinary nurse, the family pet Webster, a boston terrier, had a spinal stroke and became paralyzed in his hind end. Helping him recover from his
    injury started Matt’s love of animal rehabilitation. 

    In 2003, he took the course for canine rehabilitation through the University of Tennessee/Northeast Seminars. He has been a practicing rehab nurse since. He joined the Animal Therapy Center in 2022. When he is not helping patients recover, he is enjoying life with his wife, Vanessa, foster daughter, and Brittany puppy. They love being outdoors, hiking, camping, rock hounding, and music.

Testimonials

Read What Our Clients Say

  • I especially appreciate the kind interaction between the staff and my little Vinnie boy. I’m pretty sure he thinks he goes to the center just for hugs and kisses, not to see a doctor. I also like that you really take time to evaluate the patient not just move us through to get to your next client. AND you are spot on with the appointment time. I’m telling everyone about the doctor and staff! Vinnie and I really appreciate all of you.
