Super Vets for Super Pets

Super Vets for Super Pets

Dr. Suzanne Barnes

I’m thrilled to be part of the team here at Mixed Pet Veterinary Hospital! I joined in January 2025 and couldn’t be more excited to get to know you and your pets. Originally from Northern Kentucky, I’ve always had a deep love for animals. This, along with my passion for puzzles and problem-solving naturally led me to veterinary medicine.
I earned my undergraduate degree from Northern Kentucky University and graduated from Auburn University College of Veterinary Medicine. Over the years, I’ve worked in both general practice and an emergency and referral setting, which has given me experience handling a wide range of cases. I’m Fear Free Certified, trained in veterinary dentistry, and a proud member of AVMA and NCVMA.
My professional interests include preventative care, chronic disease management, and dental health, including cleanings and extractions. I also enjoy nutrition counseling and using Fear Free techniques to ensure pets feel safe and comfortable during their visits. I especially love working with pet parents to manage chronic conditions like allergies, ear infections, diabetes, and thyroid disorders.

Outside of work, I’m a proud mom and enjoy gardening, traveling, and finding new fancy restaurants to try. At home, I have two wonderful dogs, Domino and Cable, who keep me on my toes. I can’t wait to meet you and your furry family members—partnering with you to keep them happy and healthy is what I love most!

I could never go anywhere else. The staff are so professional, knowledgeable, friendly and very helpful. I look forward to seeing everyone and so does Zoey. Dr Schoolmeester is a wonderful Vet who spends lots of time with his patients and offers many tips to keep your pet healthy. He really cares about his patients and has many years of experience.

Excellent experience! Even though it was our first time at this office I truly felt like Dr. Schoolmeester loved and cared for my dog. He answered my questions thoroughly and to my satisfaction that I actually think I learned something about what's been ailing my fur-child. So happy to have been referred into this practice. I highly recommend them!
Response from the owner: Thank you so much for your kind review and 5-stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️! We're thrilled to hear that your first visit was a positive experience and that Dr. Schoolmeester was able to provide the care and answers you needed for your dog. We strive to ensure that every pet and owner feels heard and cared for, so it's wonderful to know that you felt that connection. We're grateful for your recommendation and look forward to continuing to provide the best care for your pet in the future!
