Amy L. Kidd, VMD

Dr. Amy Kidd has been in small animal private practice since her graduation from the University of Pennsylvania in 1998. She is a native of the greater Philadelphia area, growing up in Huntingdon Valley, Pennsylvania, and attending Muhlenberg College in Allentown prior to veterinary school. While a student at the University of Pennsylvania, Dr. Kidd’s interest in critical and emergent care was fostered and is still with her today. A strong proponent of cutting-edge medicine, Dr. Kidd prides herself in her ability to deliver high quality preventive medicine and perform both routine and emergency surgeries. Now, she is excited to be able to provide these services for the patients and their owners at Pocopson Veterinary Stati

Ruth_Eriksson_06Leia Paul, DVM

Dr. Leia Paul has been in small animal practice since her graduation from Purdue School of Veterinary Medicine in 1999. Her husband’s career path has taken her to many places—from Atlanta to Wisconsin to Maryland and finally to North Wilmington, where she has been in practice for 8 years. She is very excited to join the PVS team! Dr Paul grew up in southern Indiana and did her undergraduate studies at Oglethorpe University in Atlanta. She always knew she wanted to be a vet and enjoys the challenges and diversity that the profession offers. She loves the detective work of difficult medical cases, the artistic aspects of soft tissue surgery, and the relationships she forms with her clients and their furry children. The Paul family lives in North Wilmington and includes Dr. Paul’s husband, Brian, their two children Ella and Nate, their two poodles Lulu and Emmi, and their cats Gracie and Ollie. Top hobby for Dr.Paul is growing orchids and trying to get them to re-bloom.

History of our Building

We are privileged to work in a very unique and historical setting. Our building was built in 1893 as a passenger station for the Wilmington and Northern Railroad, then following some conversion work it became the Pocopson Post Office in 1947. The facility was subsequently sold at auction during the 1970’s, then refurbished as a veterinary practice in 1991. Many original fixtures and features have been preserved, and today the property is listed in the Chester County Register of Historic Places. The train still visits us a few times each day.
