Veterinary Team
Stephane Farmer, DVM
Dr. Stephane Farmer has been practicing veterinarian medicine since 1995 when she graduated from Texas A&M College of Veterinary Medicine. After numerous years of performing emergency medicine, Dr. Farmer decided to open Perky Paws Pet Hospital with the goal of bringing her confident, compassionate bedside manner to both patients and their parents. Dr. Farmer enjoys the challenge of diagnosing and treating diseases, as well as performing surgery and maintaining animal health by using preventative medicine. She knew from the day she was born that she would be a veterinarian; that is of course if she couldn’t magically become a cat. Her commitment to animal care is enforced with memberships of Texas, American, Collin County, and Dallas Veterinary Medical Associations. Her words to live by—Go big or Go home! And she does. She is professionally passionate about doing things the right way every time, 100%. Petting and feeding animals gives her the most joy in life and is something she will do for the rest of her days.
Support Veterinarians
Molly Matricardi, DVM
Meet Dr. Molly Matricardi. She is a part time associate DVM on our staff but started here years ago as a technician. She was pretty sure she would be an Olympic runner when she grew up but we are so excited she took a different path. After graduating veterinary school, she came on board with us and an emergency clinic as well. Her passion is to learn and grow everywhere she can so that she can be a very well rounded veterinarian for her patients and clients. Dr. Matricardi has two Samoyeds, Avalanche and Princess Aurora, and a cat named Olivia! We have been so fortunate to have her join our family and we are looking forward to her bright veterinary future.
Layne Sager, DVM
Meet Dr. Layne Sager! She is a relief Veterinarian that you can find here every Wednesday and Thursday. She has been with Perky Paws since 2019 and has been a DVM since 2007. She said if she could write her own job title, it would be… “Jack of all trades, master of none,” but we don’t think she gives herself enough credit…she is definitely the master of loving on dachshunds! At age 5, she knew she wanted to be a veterinarian and after graduating from Texas A&M Veterinary College of Veterinary Medicine, she fulfilled her dream. She loves to travel, cook and bake, and has an affinity for fine wines. Her passion for animals is beautiful and she is an amazing veterinarian who believes in best practices and preventative measures to ensure quality of life in all of her patients.
