Dr. Mike McCormick - Veterinarian

I graduated from the University of Minnesota College of Veterinary Medicine in 1983 and moved back to my hometown of Caledonia, MN in 1984. La Crescent Animal Care was started in 1997 as a part time satellite of the Caledonia Veterinary Service. In 2005 we moved into the present building which was originally built as an Amish furniture store. The Caledonia practice was sold to an associate in 2010 since La Crescent Animal Care was growing so rapidly. My professional interests are in surgery and dentistry. I am very proud of the talented group of individuals we have assembled and the high level of care that they provide to our furry friends.

Dr. Bonni Robilliard - Veterinarian

I’ve always had pets, from BlackLabs to Great Danes, bunny rabbits to horses; numerous barn cats “smuggled” into the house; and even a pet goat. I graduated from the University of Minnesota College of Veterinary Medicine in 1979 and was in private practice for several years.

Life took a turn as I pursued a doctorate in theology and spent over 10 years on the mission field. Most of my time was in Africa, with the last five years dodging bombs and bullets, mortar shells and landmines in the midst of the civil war in Southern Sudan.

After returning to the United States, I taught for 8 years in the Vet Tech program at a career college in the Twin Cities.

I am blessed to be a part of the awesome team at La Crescent Animal Care and look forward to meeting you and your “furry families”.

Victoria (Tory) Bruggeman - Professional Pet Stylist

Hello, My name is Victoria (Tory) Bruggeman. I grew up in Brownsville, MN. After high school I met my future husband while attending college at South Dakota State University. We ended up getting married in 2009 and bought a house in a small town near Sioux Falls, SD. I currently have three dogs of my own. A Standard Poodle, Chihuahua and a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel. I have always had a great love for animals, so pursuing a career in pet grooming was an easy choice for me. I have been grooming for over ten years. In the summer of 2015 we had a beautiful daughter named Alorah. Having her made me want to move back to my hometown even more. In the spring of 2018, we decided to relocate back to Brownsville, MN. I am super excited to be back in the area and to be working for a great team at the La Crescent Animal Clinic, where I can build a great clientele once again! Great customer service has always been of the utmost importance to me and I look forward to meeting everyone of my new customers.
