Elite NYC-area vet hospital embroiled in sexual harassment suit
A former employee is suing Guardian Veterinary Specialists or "GVS." The suit names noted vet oncologist Joseph Impellizeri.
In July of 2023, a former full-time employee working as a veterinary technician filed a lawsuit against Guardian Veterinary Specialists or “GVS,” a 24/7 veterinary specialty and emergency hospital in a suburb of New York City. The suit was filed in New York’s Southern District alleging sexual harassment and misconduct. The suit names noted veterinary oncologist Joseph Impellizeri and two hospital administrators. Hospital CEO Jason Berg declined a series of requests to comment for this profile, as did Dr. Impellizeri. More to come.
