Ashley Gallagher, DVM

Dr. Ashley Gallagher, our Chief of Staff, grew up and currently resides in Marblehead, Massachusetts. She received an undergraduate degree from Vanderbilt University and earned a DVM degree from the University of Florida College of Veterinary Medicine.

Her special interests include surgery, preventive medicine, and behavior.
