Bladen Animal Hospital

Bladen Animal Hospital Bladen Animal Hospital was founded by Dr. Norfleet Midyette in 1953. In 2011 the Bladen County Animal Shelter was named in his honor.

A practicing veterinarian for over 50 years, Dr Midyette was well-known as a great man that did much for his community. In addition to providing veterinary care for several generations of residents, he served on the Bladen County Board of Health. After his passing in 2013, his family wanted to keep the hospital open to continue to serve the clients and pets of Bladen County, and to preserve the ou

tstanding reputation in which Dr. Midyette had dedicated his life’s work. Dr. Sheila Hanby was contacted by his family and began working at the hospital in 2013. In April 2014 she purchased the hospital. It is her goal to uphold the values of Dr. Midyette and provide economical and ethical care to the clients and patients of Bladen Animal Hospital. A Wilmington NC native, Dr. Hanby graduated from North Carolina State University with her Doctorate of Veterinary Medicine (DVM) in 1996. Following graduation, she completed an internship in small animal medicine and surgery at Coral Springs Animal Hospital in Florida. Dr Hanby serves on the board of Bladen Animal Control and is proud to be able to offer quality veterinary care to the wonderful people of Bladen County. Dr Hanby currently sees patients mainly at her Leland NC practice, Capeside Animal Hospital, but is closely involved with day to day operation of Bladen Animal Hospital. Associate Veterinarian Dr Johanna Parker Burnette Parker was born & raised in Halifax County, NC. She graduated with her Doctorate of Veterinary Medicine from NC State University in 2007, moving back to southeastern NC in 2008. She joined the team at Bladen Animal Hospital in 2015. Dr Parker also works at Pender County Animal Shelter keeping the shelter animals healthy, and spaying/neutering them prior to their adoption. Dr Parker shares her home with her husband and two boys. In her free time she enjoys all kinds of hunting, including competition hunting and showing coonhounds; as well as riding her horse. She looks forward to meeting and caring for your pets.

🐾💙 Veterinary Assistant Week KaCheina 💙🐾

KaCheina has been with us just over a year, and from day one she fit right in like she’s always been part of the team. She’s the kind of person you can count on for anything—no task is too big or too small, and she always gets it done with a smile.

Her great sense of humor keeps us laughing, and she truly gets along with everyone—clients, coworkers, and of course, our patients. Outside of work, she’s a proud pet mom to her 2 dogs and cat and loves spending time hanging out with her pups.

We’re so thankful to have her on our team—she makes every day better! 🐶🐱

For the past 2 years, Kameron has been an incredible part of our team. She brings a calm, steady presence to even the craziest of days and truly helps keep everything running smoothly.

Kameron gets along with everyone and is always someone you can count on—whether it’s supporting her team or caring for our patients.

Outside of work, she loves spending time with her two dogs (who she absolutely adores 🐾) and enjoys relaxing with a fishing pole in hand. 🎣

🐾💙 Happy Veterinary Assistant Week! 💙🐾

This week, we celebrate the incredible veterinary assistants who help keep our hospital running every single day.

Veterinary assistants are the helping hands behind the scenes—restraining patients, preparing treatments, comforting nervous pets, cleaning, stocking, assisting doctors and technicians, and doing whatever is needed to ensure every patient receives the best possible care.

Their days are filled with wagging tails, purring patients, messy surprises, emotional moments, and countless acts of compassion. They work hard, stay flexible, and care deeply for every animal that comes through our doors.

Thank you to our veterinary assistants for your dedication, kindness, and tireless work. Your compassion makes a difference to our patients, our clients, and our entire team.

We appreciate all that you do and are so grateful to have you as part of our family. 🐶🐱🐾❤️
