Our Founder
Dr. Lilli D. Kusiak graduated from the University of Pennsylvania School of Veterinary Medicine in 1981. After 9 years as a staff veterinarian in the Newtown area, she elected to start her own practice. Indian Walk Veterinary Center opened in June 1990 in a rented 2-bedroom ranch-style house that she and her husband renovated into a cozy but efficient veterinary hospital. The initial staff consisted of Dr. Kusiak and two assistants, one full-time and the other part-time.
The practice grew quickly and in March 2000 moved to its present modern facility with 4 doctors and 12 support staff. The floorplan of the new building was designed by Dr. Kusiak with input from staff members.
Indian Walk continued to expand under Dr. Kusiak’s leadership and in March 2019, after devoting 39 years to her profession, she was able to leave her practice in younger hands and begin a well-deserved retirement.
Since then, Dr. Kusiak has resumed her old passions of bird-watching and photography and her photos of birds, wildlife and flowers have been selling well in both digital and print forms. She hopes to spend some time traveling in Europe and other places to gain more inspiration for her photographs.
