🐾 Veterinary Team Week 2025 🐾

✨ Team Member Spotlight → Nathan (aka Steve), Mia, Brandon & Kaitlyn ✨

These four bright stars are the future of veterinary medicine! 🌟

Nathan and Mia joined our FFVH crew earlier this year, and many of you have already seen their smiling faces helping care for your furry family members. Nathan just kicked off his undergraduate journey at Regent University, while Mia recently graduated from NC State University. Mia has just submitted her applications to veterinary school — go Mia!

Brandon and Kaitlyn are familiar faces who return to us whenever they’re home from NC State, where they’re both pursuing their Bachelor’s degrees. We love having them back on breaks and watching how much they’ve grown in both skill and confidence.

These four outstanding “kiddos” bring endless energy, curiosity, and heart to everything they do. They keep our veterinarians on their toes with great questions, soak up every bit of knowledge they can, and are reminded daily that veterinary medicine is so much more than “just puppies and kittens.” (We always try to soak up puppy and kitten time to the fullest!) They’ve already learned that this career is one of the most challenging — and most rewarding — in the world.

FFVH is beyond lucky to have these rising stars on our team, even if we have to share them as they chase their dreams and continue their education. The future of veterinary care is in great hands with this crew! 🐶🐱💙

🐾 Veterinary Team Week 2025 🐾

🐾 Team Member Spotlight → Kim, CSR 🌟

Kim has been an integral part of our FFVH front desk dream team for the past few years—but her experience in the veterinary field stretches back nearly 30 years! That’s nearly three decades of dedication, compassion, and firsthand knowledge of how the industry has evolved—from new product innovations to changing vaccine protocols and everything in between.

Always eager to learn, Kim tackles each day with a calm spirit and kindness. From triaging calls to coordinating drop-offs, pick-ups, wellness visits, and those last-minute emergencies, she somehow keeps it all running smoothly (and gracefully!) even when things get hectic.

Kim’s adventurous spirit started early. Growing up as part of an Army family, she lived and traveled all over the world. Her love of horses began in Bangkok, Thailand, with her very first pony, Midnight Star. She went on to study Equestrian Studies at Southern Seminary Junior College with her horse, Count Sahara.

These days, Kim shares her home with her loyal pup, Harbour, and seven fun, mischievous cats who keep life interesting. When she’s not at FFVH, you’ll find her enjoying her favorite pastimes—traveling, swimming, and listening to music.

Thank you, Kim, for your decades of dedication and the warmth you bring to our FFVH family every single day! We’re so lucky to have you! 💛🐾

🐾 Veterinary Team Week 2025 🐾

✨ Team Member Spotlight → Janessa, Veterinary Assistant ✨

Meet Janessa, one of our incredible Veterinary Assistants! 🌟 Originally from Central New Jersey, Janessa has called Currituck County home
for the past 14 years — and we’re so lucky she did! She brings nearly 20 years of experience in the equine, animal welfare, and veterinary technician fields. Over the years, she’s worked in a little bit of everything — from horse farms and animal shelters to busy veterinary clinics. In 2014, Janessa turned her passion for helping animals into action by founding Southern Hope Animal Rescue and Education (SHARE), a nonprofit dedicated to giving animals a second chance and
educating the community about compassionate care. 🐴🐶🐱

Southern Hope Animal Rescue and Education has some fun upcoming events so please check them out!

These days, Janessa balances her time between caring for patients at FFVH, managing SHARE, and tending to her own crew of beloved pets — proving that her heart (and schedule!) are both full of love and purpose.

Thank you, Janessa, for your endless compassion, experience, and dedication to
animals of all shapes and sizes! 💕

🐾 Veterinary Team Week 2025 🐾

Team Member Spotlight → Tawny, Veterinary Assistant

Y’all, meet Tawny — one of our amazing Veterinary Assistants! 🌟

Tawny joined the FFVH crew last year, bringing with her years of experience and a Texas-sized heart for animals. Born and raised on a farm just outside of Austin, she’s been around critters big and small her whole life. In 2024, she and her son
made the move to North Carolina, and we couldn’t be happier to have them here!

Tawny’s quick wit and big sense of humor (think Texas BIG!) keep our days lively, and her calm, capable hands make her a rockstar in both exam rooms and surgeries alike.

Thank you, Tawny, for bringing your southern charm, dedication, and laughter to our FFVH family — our patients (and teammates!) are lucky to have you! 💕🐶🐱

🐾 Veterinary Team Week 2025

Team Member Spotlight → Angie, CSR Lead

Angie wears many hats at FFVH and truly keeps our front lines running strong! She’s the first
smiling face (and voice!) you’ll encounter each day, and she’s usually the first one in the
building—getting everything organized and ready before the phones even start ringing. From
triaging calls to coordinating drop-offs, pick-ups, wellness visits, and last-minute emergies, Angie somehow manages it all with calm, kindness, and a signature smile—even when we’re deep in the “trenches.”

Over the years, Angie has also become a patient and devoted mentor, cross-training countless
team members and always making sure everyone feels supported. She is also the one that keeps are front seasonably decorated and our beautiful plants looking their best 👌

A longtime local, Angie has called the Outer Banks home since 1986 and is a proud Manteo
High School graduate. She’s been in the veterinary world for five years and brings her trademark mix of warmth, wit, and work ethic every single day.

When she’s not holding down the FFVH fort, you can find her enjoying motorcycle rides, fishing,
getting new tattoos, or spending time with her family—especially her two children and her
grandson, who she absolutely loves to spoil. At home, she’s surrounded by her two dogs, one
cat, and a few friendly deer who stop by for snacks.

Angie, thank you for being our front-line rockstar and the heart of our client service team!
We couldn’t do it without you! 🌟

🐾 Veterinary Team Week 2025 🐾

✨ Team Member Spotlight → Dr. Jeanette ✨

We’re thrilled to shine this spotlight on Dr. Jeanette, who joined our FFVH family this
past summer! From day one, she’s brought a wealth of knowledge, compassion, and calm energy to our team — and we couldn’t be happier to have her.

Originally from Long Island, New York, Dr. Jeanette graduated from Kansas State University College of Veterinary Medicine in 2009. (As all true K-Staters do, she bleeds purple! 💜 Go Wildcats!)

While she adores animals of all ages and species, senior pets hold an extra special place in her heart. Her passion for helping them live their best, most comfortable lives led her to pursue advanced training in Traditional Chinese Veterinary Medicine
(TCVM). She’s a certified practitioner in acupuncture, herbal medicine, Tui-na, and
food therapy—offering gentle, holistic care options for pets at every life stage, especially those with chronic conditions.

Dr. Jeanette recently relocated from Hampton Roads to North Carolina with her husband and daughter. They’re settling into country life and have already rescued the sweetest little Chihuahua, Bella. The family plans to start a farm soon—so stay tuned for future furry additions!

When she’s not caring for patients at FFVH, Dr. Jeanette dedicates her time to Happy
Earth Pet Hospice, her own practice providing comfort and support to pets and families during end-of-life care.

We’re so excited to have Dr. Jeanette on our team and can’t wait for all our clients and patients to experience her warmth, skill, and compassion! 🌿🐾💜

Meet Meg— one of our amazing veterinary assistants!🌟 Currently enrolled in Penn Foster’s Veterinary Technician Program, Megan is working hard toward her goal of becoming a Registered Veterinary Technician. Her journey in animal care started young, fueled by a lifelong passion for animals and a big heart full of compassion. 🐶🐱💕

When she’s not studying or caring for patients, you’ll find Megan enjoying life to the fullest! She loves spending time with her close-knit family and her adorable fur crew:
🐾 **Charlie** – her loyal dachshund
🐾 **Sadie** – her sweet rescue kitty
🐾 **Scout** – her boyfriend’s lovable Labrador

Megan’s happy place is anywhere outdoors — whether she's fishing, hitting the beach, practicing yoga, diving into a good book, or exploring somewhere new. 📚☀️🧘‍♀️ And did we mention she’s an avid photographer? She loves capturing the magic of nature, animals, and the small moments that make life beautiful. 📸✨
