Dr.Kathy Hibbard is a graduate of the MSU College of Veterinary Medicine class of 1981. "The longer I practice, the more I see myself as a "general" practitioner with the basic philosophy of treating people the way that I would want to be treated, and treating their pets as if they were my own." As a practice, we strive to keep up with the latest medical technology...as an individual, I am humbled by the realization that my greatest tool will always be my heart."

“I love coming to work each day. The rewards of this occupation are many, forming relationships with the people who come in here with their beloved pets, and hopefully being able to make a difference in the life of an animal.
