Sheila was born and raised in Hialeah, Florida.
After marrying her husband, Mike, they moved to Daytona Beach.
While living in Florida, many of their vacations were to the North Georgia mountains and they eventually relocated to Oakwood in 1998.
Sheila's employment background includes many years in management in the resort industry in central and south Florida, but her passion since childhood has been animals.
This passion led to a career change in 2001 when she accepted the position of Hospital Manager at Gainesville Veterinary Hospital.

Our wellness and vaccination programs are designed to prevent disease and prolong the lives of your companion animals.
Disease prevention is always less costly than dealing with the treatment of a disease once your pet has developed it.
An example would be the treatment of parvovirus.
Parvovirus treatment can frequently cost $1,000 or more while a single parvovirus vaccination will usually cost less than $20.
Early diagnosis of a disease process can lead your pet to a longer healthier life.
Kidney disease, if diagnosed early, will allow us to modify your dog or cat's diet and in some cases add supplements to their diet to potentially extend their lives.

Our puppy wellness program is designed to offer your new puppy all the benefits of veterinary services available to him / or her from 6 weeks of age to 16 weeks of age.
Included in this service is a series of examinations and vaccinations including rabies, distemper, parvovirus, etc.
In addition, your puppy will be tested for worms and be treated for the most common intestinal worm of puppies - roundworms.

There are other parasites that can cause similar symptoms and can even cause your puppy to become anemic (low red blood cells).

We provide diagnostic and wellness services for your adult pet including but not limited to: blood testing, fecal testing, and urine testing.
Your personal yearly check up at your doctor is likely to include these tests and so should your pet's yearly exam.
Every year we detect many disease processes in apparently 'normal' adult animals.
The results help us address problems in the early stages.
Early diagnosis and appropriate treatments can result in your companion living a longer healthier life.

Once your dog turns 7 years of age or your cat turns 8 years of age, we recommend that they undergo a thorough senior wellness exam and diagnostic work-up.
Even though you may believe your pet is normal, there are many disease processes that do not show any outward sign until the disease is quite advanced.
More advanced diseases can be more difficult to treat and are not always as responsive to treatment as diseases diagnosed early.
Early detection of diseases such as kidney disease, thyroid disease, etc. will allow us to administer the appropriate treatments to help extend your pet's life.
