⚕️🥼Meet our wonderful intern: Dr. Horton🥼⚕️
Born and raised in Maryland, Dr. Horton earned her Bachelor of Science from Stevenson University before completing her Doctor of Veterinary Medicine degree at the Virginia-Maryland College of Veterinary Medicine.
She began her veterinary career in small animal primary care but quickly discovered her passion for emergency medicine, where she finds fulfillment in helping pets and their families navigate some of their most difficult days.
Dr. Horton’s long-term goal is to practice as a small animal emergency veterinarian, with a particular interest in soft tissue surgery. She is also considering pursuing a residency in Emergency and Critical Care in the future.
Outside of the hospital, Dr. Horton enjoys traveling, especially exploring national parks, hiking, reading, gardening, and horseback riding. She especially loves spending time with her dog, Cedar. Dr. Horton is excited to continue learning and growing as a veterinarian, become part of the hospital community, and provide compassionate care to her patients and their families.
We're so lucky to have Dr. Horton with us, touching the lives of the pets and families she meets! 🐾
