She is committed to caring for her patients and promoting their optimal wellness. In her free time, Lindsay enjoys spending time with her husband and daughters outside.

She quickly became an asset to our team, accelerating through her technician assistant training and becoming a full-time technician in under a year! We are proud to now have Julia leading our surgery room by coordinating both routine and specialty procedures. When she is not providing the best care for her patients at the hospital, Julia enjoys partaking in the performing arts, cuddling her cat “Wednesday”, and going on walks with her dog “Enid”!

After graduating from the College of Charleston with a degree in Exercise Science, she is currently pursuing her DVM degree at Long Island University. Ashleigh is looking forward to her future as a veterinarian, with an interest in canine rehabilitation and surgery. She is committed to caring for the animals as if they were her own and helping wherever possible. In her free time, she loves weightlifting and hiking with her pup, “Snoopy”.

After graduating from West Virginia University, studying Sociology and Criminology, she followed her love of helping animals by working at Gentle Giants, a local horse farm.
