Caring Staff at One Love Animal Hospital's Bay Ridge Location
One Love Animal Hospital opened in October 2010 by husband and wife vet team, Dr. Kenneth Humphreys and Dr. Eliza Lischin. Since then, it continues to be a trusted name in pet health, as it provides comprehensive quality care essential to enhancing the human-animal bond shared between you and your pet.
Dr. Laura D'Onofrio was born and raised in Brooklyn and always had a strong desire to work with animals. She volunteered as a teenager watering, feeding and cleaning animals in the kennel. Laura attended Wagner College where she majored in chemistry and then she moved on to study at St. George's University of Veterinary Medicine in Grenada. After a year abroad, Laura returned to the U.S. to attend Kansas State School of Veterinary Medicine, where she earned her D.V.M.
A 15-year veteran of the veterinary field, Laura has worked in all facets of the pet care world from kennel help to technician to doctor. Through her meticulous nature and tireless work ethic, Laura has gained clients, friends, and countless loyal four-legged customers while working in the field.
Laura enjoys free time with her dogs, Phantom and Lira, a Weimaraner and a mixed breed, and her cat, Suzy.
At a young age, Dr. Stephany Matos understood the connection that a person can have with their pet. She learned from her first dog, Tilly that loyalty and compassion are among the many traits that make owning a pet an amazing experience. Because of her relationship with Tilly, her passion to help animals grew stronger. Through the years, she has housed a variety of furry friends including hamsters, guinea pigs, iguanas, parakeets, and dogs. Stephany currently cares for her beloved ferret Scoop, and guinea pigs, Peppa and Smudge.
Dr. Matos began her pursuit for veterinary medicine by attaining a Bachelor of Science in Zoology at the State University of Oswego in upstate New York. During her undergraduate studies she worked as a kennel assistant, grooming and feeding dogs, as well as a veterinarian assistant at a local animal hospital. Stephany moved abroad to study veterinary medicine at Ross University in St. Kitts, West Indies, and finished her clinical year at Tufts University in Massachusetts.
Dr. Matos is extremely grateful that she has been able to fulfill her lifelong dream of becoming a veterinarian, and looks forward to making connections with pets and their families through kind and compassionate care.

Allen received his D.V.M. at Ross University School of Veterinary Medicine and completed his clinical rotations at the University of Florida. Allen enjoys forming relationships with his clients and ensuring the best quality of care for his patients.
