I moved to the Centerville area with my wife Dr. Liz Neilley in the spring of 2018. She and I are both veterinarians and were lucky enough to attend veterinary school together at The Ohio State University, where we became very close with Dr. Christina Crouch. I am originally from east of Columbus, and grew up with lots of animals. One of my grandfathers and two of my uncles were veterinarians, and my other grandfather was a farmer, so I had plenty of exposure to animals and their health growing up. 

 

As a practicing veterinarian, I've developed an interest in geriatric and palliative care, and was trained in acupuncture and Traditional Chinese Veterinary Medicine at the Chi Institute in Florida in 2019. This training proved invaluable in giving comfort and pain relief to many of my geriatric patients. When not working, I enjoy hiking and traveling. I also love trying new restaurants and cooking at home. I have a black mini poodle named Luna and a torbie (tortoiseshell/tabby) named Hermione.
