My name is Alex Graham, and I am the hydrotherapist, as well as a registered veterinary technician, at Forever Friends Pet Care Center & Hospital.

A Cleveland-Akron area native, I attended Kent State University where I obtained a degree in finance and worked in the banking industry before deciding I needed to follow my heart's dream of working with animals.

Enrolling in Cuyahoga Community College's Veterinary Technology program exposed me to canine hydrotherapy. After further researching this new field, I knew this was my calling. I joined the Forever Friends team in March of 2009 and have been working steadily since then providing hydrotherapy to many patients. 

 My own puggle, Ernie, has lost nearly 5 lbs from swimming at Forever Friends. He is healthier and more active from the exercise and beneficial weight loss.

I love the work I do at Forever Friends. Each pet offers his or her unique set of health challenges, and it is incredibly rewarding to see the progress each makes. In the future, I hope to further my education by attending the University of Tennessee and becoming certified in canine rehabilitation.
