We are absolutely delighted and deeply honored to introduce Dr. Michelle Murray, our new board-certified Neurologist, bringing specialized neurology services to Polk County.🧠🐾

This vital specialty marks a significant advancement in the care available to our beloved pet patients with neurological conditions. At VHA, our commitment to the health and happiness of the pets and people we serve drives every decision we make. Adding neurology to our services is a momentous step that promises to profoundly impact the lives of many pets. Below, we share Dr. Murray's bio, highlighting her expertise and passion for veterinary neurology.⬇️

Dr. Michelle Murray’s passion for animals and science has been a lifelong journey. Growing up, she combined her love of animals with her curiosity about medicine, and during high school, she worked at one of the country’s first specialty and referral hospitals. That experience ignited her passion for veterinary medicine and set her on a path to specialize in neurology and neurosurgery. She earned her DVM from the University of Wisconsin-Madison in 1998, completed an internship at Michigan State University, and pursued a residency and Master of Science in Neurology/Neurosurgery at Colorado State University. Dr. Murray is also certified in Canine Rehabilitation through the Canine Rehabilitation Institute.

Dr. Murray was drawn to VHA for our philosophy of compassionate, community-focused care and our strong connection to the local area. She was especially inspired by the fact that the practice is independently owned by Dr. Nations, who grew up in the community he now serves. She finds immense fulfillment in offering advanced, compassionate care to her patients and their families.

Outside of work, Dr. Murray’s creative side really shines. With a background as a studio art minor and a biochemistry major, she’s always loved blending science and design. She’s passionate about architecture, interior decorating, and antique shopping, and during college, she even spent two years designing veterinary hospitals—a perfect mix of her love for animals and creativity.

We’re thrilled to officially introduce a true powerhouse on our Emergency and ICU team—Dr. Tom Winfield! 🎉 We’re honored to have him as part of the VHA journey, and continue serving our community. Drop a warm welcome for Dr. Winfield in the comments below, and read his bio below.⬇️

Dr. Winfield’s journey into veterinary medicine was fueled by his love for science and the companionship of pets. Growing up in the UK, he discovered his passion for medicine and surgery early on, combining his interest in animals and science during high school. After earning his veterinary degree from the University of Surrey in 2020, he worked in a large multi-disciplinary hospital for two years before pursuing qualifications to practice in the U.S. A chance meeting with Dr. Nations and a tour of VHA made him realize he’d found the perfect place to continue his career.

At VHA, Dr. Winfield thrives on offering gold-standard care to every patient, thanks to an incredible team and cutting-edge technology. At home, Dr. Winfield and his wife Daisy, a registered veterinary nurse, share their lives with two rescue cats: Daphne (Noodle), a Siamese, and Timmy, a Ragdoll. Outside of work, he’s a huge NFL fan, cheering on the Cleveland Browns and Tampa Bay Buccaneers. His love for the strategy, precision, and analytics of football reflects his thoughtful approach to veterinary medicine.

To stay balanced in a demanding field, Dr. Winfield focuses on separating work and home life. “It allows me to decompress and spend quality time with my family while giving my all to work when I’m there,” he says. He’s excited by the varied and challenging cases at VHA, which push him to grow as a clinician every day.

Dr. Winfield lives by the iconic British mantra: “Keep calm and carry on.” We’re so proud to have him on our team and can’t wait to see the amazing work he’ll continue to do! 🐶🐱
