Our Veterinarians
Dr. Martha Kehoe
Founder & Veterinarian
A Brevard County native, Dr. Martha Kehoe has been caring for animals since 1987, when she first worked as a veterinary technician. After earning her Doctor of Veterinary Medicine degree from the University of Florida in 2000, she returned home to build a practice rooted in compassionate, quality care. Dr. Kehoe is passionate about forming lifelong relationships with her clients and their pets. At home, she and her husband, Sean, enjoy time with their daughter and three rescue dogs—Jo, Pete, and Gigi.
Dr. Catie Russell-Ryan
Associate Veterinarian
Originally from Ft. Worth, Texas, Dr. Catie Russell-Ryan brings a love of rescue, rehabilitation, and adoption to her work.

Dr. Russell is especially passionate about acupuncture and how it helps pets live more comfortable, balanced lives.
Dr. Darcy Forber
