Cambridge Cat Clinic

Meet Our Team

 

Our Veterinarians

Cambridge Cat Clinic is a collaboration between Dr. Kimberly Levine and Dr. Laura Widman, both of whom have a personal passion for cats and many years of experience treating them.  They worked together for eight years treating cats in the Boston area and during that time found they shared a vision on how to provide modern, compassionate care for our feline companions.

Laura Widman, DVM

Dr. Widman developed a love of animals at an early age while growing up on a farm in Indiana. After getting a B.A. in French and an M.A. in Slavic linguistics, she decided to pursue her childhood goal of becoming a veterinarian.

Dr. Widman graduated from the University of California-Davis School of Veterinary Medicine in 1998. She has been practicing feline-only medicine full time in the Boston area since January 1999. She has special interests in dentistry, surgery, and endoscopy.

During her spare time she pursues all manner of fiber arts, particularly knitting and spinning, as well as sewing. She lives with her partner, Steve, and their three cats, Twyla, Rama, and Elijah.

Nate K.

Veterinary Assistant and Future Veterinarian

Born and raised in the Greater Boston Area, Nate has been fascinated with biology from an early age. The only team member without a cat of his own, he currently lives with a kingsnake; a Pomeranian; and insect colonies comprised of Madagascar hissing roaches, dubia roaches, and darkling beetles, respectively. A former pre-med student, Nate finally decided to turn to animal health care after undergoing brain surgery in 2018. While pursuing a Masters in Bioethics from Harvard Medical School, he pursued a Capstone investigating the application of decision-making models from human medicine to veterinary care. He hopes that his bioethics education will help guide his worldview as a veterinarian in the future. Nate also plays violin, sings, and skateboards. He holds pants with pockets in high regard.

We are very proud to announce that Nate has been accepted into a veterinary medical school starting in 2023. Congrats, Nate!

Eugene L.

Veterinary Assistant

Originally from the Boston area, Eugene is currently pursuing studies in epidemiology, with the ultimate goal of conducting research and working towards an environmentally viable and more equitable future. Outside of his passion for public health, he spends his free time hiking, pickling (almost) anything he can get his hands on, watercolor painting, lifting weights, building model kits, and catering to his cat Agnes' every whim. And as much as he loves her-- which is of course, infinitely and unconditionally-- Eugene is a cat person through and through, so he always looks forward to seeing lots of other cats every single day!

 
 

Clara F.

Certified Veterinary Technician

After working at a small veterinary clinic for a few years, Clara graduated from Holyoke Community College in the spring of 2019 with a degree in Veterinary Science, and received certification in the summer. While in Western Massachusetts, she spent her free time working with feral kittens at the local shelter, and found herself becoming more and more invested in feline medicine. She moved to Cambridge in 2020, and spent a year working with all kinds of furry creatures in the ophthalmology department at Angell Animal Medical Center, but missed the immersive care of private practice. When not helping Cambridge's feline population, Clara enjoys running, drawing, taking naps with her feline friend Carmen, and doting on her grumpy rabbit Mags.

 
 

Anna U.

Veterinary Assistant

Anna first developed an interest in animal medicine in childhood, lecturing her family cat about the importance of eating cat food instead of people food, and dissecting dead bugs she found in the sandbox at recess. While pursuing her BS in biology she volunteered at a local zoo and her school’s reptile collection, and she’s been working in vet med since graduating. While she’s experienced with a wide variety of species, Anna has soft spots for fractious felines and creepy crawlies, and has two cats and two snakes of her own. In her free time, she enjoys hiking, swimming, live music, and photographing flowers or any cool bugs she finds in her community garden or the world beyond. She dreams of spending a year doing amateur field cryptozoology on Loch Ness, searching for the eponymous monster.
