The practice was founded in January of 1988 by Dr. Janet Tosh. Dr. Bennett became a partner at Clearview Veterinary Hospital in 2016 before officially purchasing the practice in 2017 and relocating to its current location in 2018.
Throughout her many years as practice owner, Dr. Tosh raised her daughter Christine in and around the clinic from the time she was a little girl. We are proud to continue that tradition with our 3 kids, all of whom have spent significant time around the practice as babies.
The middle sibling of five children growing up here in Louisiana, Dr. Janet Tosh was the one who assumed the responsibility of taking care of her family’s dogs, cats, hamsters, fish, birds, and other pets.
She always had an affinity for pet care, and knew that she wanted to help animals professionally. Fulfilling her ultimate dream, Dr. Tosh founded Clearview Veterinary Hospital in 1988, where she faithfully served the people and pets of the Metairie community for more than 30 years.
Throughout her long tenure at the clinic, Dr. Tosh touched countless lives – both human and animal, and was beloved by her staff and clients alike. She considered helping families enjoy their pets for as long as possible to be the ultimate reward. In 2017, Dr. Tosh officially passed the torch to Dr. Bennet, who along with her team, carries on the legacy that Dr. Tosh created.
Sadly, Dr. Tosh passed away on Thursday, May 20, 2021 at the age of 67. She will always be remembered for her compassion, dedication and kindness. While those left behind grieve her loss, we take comfort in the fact that Dr. Tosh has crossed the Rainbow Bridge where so many of the pets she cared for over the years were waiting to greet her.
