BJVIM Welcomes New Office Manager

Written by

You may have noticed a new face in the office at BJVIM recently. We are excited to have Lee McSavaney join our team as the new office manager. Lee has jumped right in and is working very hard to understand our clinic needs.

In 2007, more than 20 years after leaving the UK, Lee and her husband, Dave, made their final relocation, to their “forever” home in Moss Creek.
