Our Veterinarians

Dr. Confessore
Veterinarian
About Dr. Confessore
Becoming a veterinarian was a young girls dream that came to be after many hard years of work for Dr. Confessore. With a passion for science (her Dad was a physics teacher) and a love for animals (her Mom is an avid animal fan) the only career goal for her was veterinary medicine. After receiving her undergraduate degree at Fairleigh Dickinson University with a BS in biology, she went on to study at North Carolina State University – College of Veterinary Medicine. Lisa graduated in 1987 and began
practicing first in Cedar Grove, for 17 years, then in Wayne for 15 years. Fostering meaningful relationships with her clients is paramount to Dr. Confessore as this is the gateway to provide the best care for her patients.
She is an active member of the AVMA and the NNJVMA and routinely attends continuing education seminars – again to keep updated to provide excellent care.
Now that her children have become adults, her mothering energy is dedicated to her rescue dog, Rolo the lab mix, and two cats, Lanie and Geno. Lisa is a rabid – ah, avid- music fan, and enjoys live performances. She also enjoys cooking, reading and cultural events.
