Choosing the right veterinarian can be one of the most important things you can do for your pet. Our team is here to treat you and your pet like family. Led by Dr. MJ Wixsom, who has lived an incredible life before joining the veterinary space. New clients are encouraged to stop by for a full tour of our facility! If you'd like to set up a tour, please contact us at us at 606-928-6566.
Before entering the veterinary field, Dr. Wixsom spent four years at the United States Coast Guard Academy. She was one of the first 14 women to graduate from any U.S. Academy. After five years of active duty including Commanding Officer on two ships, a knee injury sidelined her career at sea. She decided to return to her childhood dream: veterinary medicine and animal care.
LTJG Wixsom went back to school during her last tour of duty to receive a second Bachelor's degree in biology and then headed off to veterinary school to earn her Doctorate and Masters of Science in Veterinary Parasitology. What does it mean to be an Accredited Member of the American Animal Hospital Association (AAHA)?
