Meet the Team

Dr. Faulkner has always known he wanted to be a veterinarian. He has a special interest in reptiles and spent the majority of his childhood at the pond near his house in Copley. He is an alumnus of Revere High School, The University of Akron, and The Ohio State University, where he earned his Doctorate in Veterinary Medicine in 2012. At work, he enjoys earning the trust and affection of his patients, as well as performing surgical procedures and providing only the best analgesia so his patients can wake up pain free. When not at work, he enjoys hiking, reading, traveling, photography, and spoiling his own pets.

Olivia (aka Liv) has loved all animals and creatures since she was old enough to sit in the dirt "rescuing" worms, toads, and frogs by bringing them home in her diaper.

She has a bachelor's of science in zoology and never wanted to work in the vet field. However, after taking a position in her first clinic in 2009, she realized that it was possible to provide the pets with a positive rather than terrifying visit, and has been dedicated to that mission ever since. She is especially fond of pitbulls and advocates against breed specific legislation.

She officially earned her registration as a veterinary technician in 2018, and became a Fear Free Certified Professional in 2021.

In her spare time, she enjoys hiking and camping, traveling, reading, napping, and snuggling with her pets.

Beth has worked in the veterinary field since 2001, and couldn't imagine doing anything else. She loves all animals, and has enjoyed working with dogs, cats, horses, and the occasional goat for years. She currently shares her home with two adorable dogs, three cats, a rabbit, a toad, a leopard gecko, and too many fish to count.  She loves to share stories about her goofy pets, and always enjoys hearing about the at home lives of the amazing patients she gets to work with on a daily basis.  To her, pets really are the best part of life.

Stefanie is a Registered Veterinary Technician with more than 20 years of experience. She strives to make our patients feel cared for and comfortable, while helping clients navigate their pets’ healthcare needs. Whether Stefanie's caring for a nervous puppy, a senior pet, or anything in between, her goal is always to provide compassionate care with a gentle touch. She believes kindness, compassion, and a little humor can go a long way—both in veterinary medicine and in life.

Hi, I'm Megan!

I've been in the vet world since 2018, and my passion for animals goes to the next level.  I even pull over for any critters to make sure they get across the road safely.

My goal is to make every pet and their families feel like they've just walked into Grandma's house; coze, safe, & full of love.  I love watching shy patients come out of their shell here in our fear free environment.

When I'm not at the clinic, I enjoy walking my pups, lifting, and reading my kindle!

Hi, I’m Haley! Animals have been a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember, and I’m lucky enough to turn that passion into a career I truly love. For the past six years, I’ve been working in the veterinary field, helping pets stay happy, healthy, and comfortable. I completed the Veterinary Assistant program at North Coast Medical Academy and am also a professional groomer, so you may see me helping your furry family members not only feel their best, but look their best too! Whether I’m assisting with patient care or giving a pet a fresh new look, my goal is always to make every visit a positive experience. When I’m not at work, my home is full of wagging tails and purrs with four dogs and one cat keeping life busy and entertaining. I love spending time outdoors, especially hiking with my dogs, and making memories with the people who mean the most to me. There’s nothing more rewarding than caring for animals every day, and I’m grateful to be doing what I love while helping pets and their families along the way!

Bri’s passion for animal care began in 2023, and she’s been chasing that dream ever since. Currently enrolled at Penn Foster and working toward becoming a Registered Veterinary Technician, she’s always looking for new opportunities to learn and grow in the veterinary field. At home, Bri is a proud pet parent to three furry companions who mean the world to her. Two of them are “foster fails”—and she wouldn’t have it any other way! After starting her first animal-care position in 2024 as a Client Service Representative (CSR), Bri quickly discovered that her heart was in direct patient care. Eager to work more closely with animals, she transitioned into a Veterinary Assistant role, where she continues to expand her skills and knowledge every day. With a love for learning and a dedication to helping pets live healthier lives, Bri is excited to continue her journey toward becoming a Registered Veterinary Technician.

An animal lover since childhood, Allie has worked in veterinary medicine and rescue since 2016. Her experience spans roles as a veterinary assistant, receptionist, shelter representative, and sea turtle rehabilitator, alongside fostering countless puppies, kittens, and dogs. Allie channels her lifelong passion into her Medina hobby farm, spending her free time caring for her two horses, donkeys, dogs, and ducks.

Sam went to school for fashion merchandising but never felt like that was a good fit. After working in merchandising for a year, she took a job at her first vet clinic in 2017, and hasn’t looked back since. While Sam has never met a dog or cat she doesn’t like, she is especially fond of giant breeds. 

Newt is a former barn and momma cat that came to us with a prolapsed rectum in the summer of 2022.  She is the sweetest, most loving kitty.  For us, it was love at first sight.  Due to her medical issues, she needed to be an indoor cat, so we asked if we could keep her!

She quickly adjusted to the indoor life and loves napping in our cat window, playing with toys, and cuddling with the rest of the staff.

Tuna (government name Petunia) joined our staff as a clinic cat in August 2024.  She is gorgeous, and she knows it!

Exudes a sense of superiority, loves to be brushed and sleep in her various cat beds, hates uninvited touching (and will let you know it).  Demands (literally) sniffs of all human foods, and recently has moved home with Sam to work remotely because she was creating a hostile work environment...for herself.
