When she’s not working, Dr. Sullivan enjoys hiking, snowshoeing, camping, snowboarding, and most other outdoor activities, including volunteer trail work in the White Mountains.

In September of 2018, we welcomed Dr. Margarita Sokolova to our team at Hudson Animal Hospital as one of our veterinarians! Dr. Sokolova began her career in the veterinary field as a technician in 2010 while attending Hunter College, studying both Biological Sciences and Sociology. After graduating, Dr. Sokolova continued her education, attending Tufts Cummings School of Veterinary Medicine. She graduated in 2017 with her Doctor of Veterinary Medicine degree. Although a New York City native, Dr. Sokolova enjoys living in New Hampshire, where she spends her free time kayaking, hiking, crafting, and cooking. She believes pets are family and enjoys helping their families care for them in return for the unconditional love and joy they bring to their owner’s lives.
