Meet the Team at Kingdom Animal Hospital

Dr. Henderson grew up in Des Moines, Iowa and graduated from the Iowa State College of Veterinary Medicine in 1989. After graduation, he and his wife Allison moved to Vermont to start their careers. Dr. Henderson was hired at the North Country Veterinary Clinic as an associate veterinarian and Allison at a local pharmacy as a pharmacist.  In 1993 he purchased the business and settled into life starting a family and enjoying all that the Northeast Kingdom has to offer. Dr. Henderson and Allison have four children, Riley, Katie, Sarah and Jack. They also have 2 dogs, Kassie and Milo, and a cat Oliver. Dr. Henderson enjoys outdoor activities such as hiking and anything that involves water, liquid or frozen.

Dr. Teehan attended Tufts University School of Veterinary Medicine, graduating in 2015. She then began a one-year equine surgical internship in southwestern Pennsylvania. After completing her internship, she was asked to stay on as an associate, fielding emergencies, performing lameness exams, and continuing to assist in a variety of surgeries, from colics to fracture repairs. However, after three years in Pennsylvania she decided to move back home to be closer to her family. Since switching gears to small animal medicine, Dr. Teehan has been practicing in the NEK for three years. She lives in Newport with her two cats, Beaker and Nessie. 

Alyssa graduated from Vermont Technical College with an associate’s degree in veterinary technology and a bachelor’s degree in business management. She brings a background in emergency medicine to our team. Alyssa is especially interested in exotic species and urgent care cases. Outside of work, Alyssa enjoys spending time with her family and hiking with her boxer Bruno.

Emily-Rose’s dog, Alvin, went to college with her and 3 of her coworkers.

Ethan began working for Dr. Calamaio in July 2018 but has loved being around animals his whole life. He grew up in Danville with his two sisters. Ethan graduated from Swarthmore College in 2001 and then moved out west for a number of years. He came back in 2011 because northern Vermont is the place that he feels most connected to.

Ethan’s two favorite things are dogs and mountains. He has worked at a sled dog kennel in Concord, VT, for the past 8 years and hikes with his dogs “Stella” and “Nori” in the White Mountains whenever possible.

Fallyn’s Mini Aussie, Cami, hiked all of New Hampshire’s 48 4000-footers before she turned 4 years old! She has a badge for her achievement!
