Dr. Revital Kastner
Owner and Veterinarian
Dr. Revital “Tali” Kastner is the owner of Park Street Veterinary Clinic. She is a 2003 graduate of Tufts University School of Veterinary Medicine. She is also certified in acupuncture through the International Veterinary Acupuncture Society (IVAS), and Traditional Chinese Herbal Medicine and Medical Manipulation (chiropractic) through the Chi Institute. Dr. Kastner completed her undergraduate studies at Brandeis University in Waltham, MA, with a double major in Psychology and Neuroscience with the plan to study psychiatry. However, she inevitably could not imagine not caring for animals over humans. Dr. Kastner is a member of the American and Massachusetts Veterinary Medical Associations as well as the American Association of Veterinary Acupuncture and International Veterinary Acupuncture Society.
Dr. Kastner particularly enjoys blending traditional Western medicine with complementary Eastern techniques. She loves managing internal medicine and behavior cases where she can partner with owners to improve their pet’s quality of life. She has many long-term, devoted clients whose pets she has cared for since puppy and kittenhood.
Dr. Kastner and her husband are kept busy with their two children and currently share their home with their two dogs, Bongo and Ozzie. In her downtime, her guilty pleasure is binging supernatural/sci-fi television series or vacationing on a warm, sandy beach.

Amanda
Veterinary Assistant, Surgery Technician
Amanda started her animal career as a kennel attendant and thanks to skills obtained while attending Essex Agricultural and Technical High School as well as her knack for animal handling she has progressed to be one of our valuable veterinary assistants. She originally visited Park Street as a client and impressed us with her knowledge and dedication so much that during an acupuncture appointment for her late pup, Tiger, we recruited her to work with us. Amanda has grown up with animals and has a particular love of wildlife. Amanda’s idea of a perfect morning is a walk through the woods with her two dogs, Gator and Mara, and getting some great photography shots of any wildlife she sees along the way.
