April - Receptionist
Kasey grew up in Savannah, Georgia but found herself in the Macon area after her husband began working at Robins AFB. She has been working with animals for the last five years - starting out in rescue, then doggie daycare and boarding, and finally finding her happy place in veterinary medicine. She has three dogs of her own: two chihuahuas named Sophie and Butters, and a lab mix named Gemma. In her spare time, she enjoys reading with a chihuahua or two in her lap, trying new restaurants with her husband and friends, and going anywhere with a beach as often as she can. Her favorite parts of the job are dental cleanings and forming relationships with patients and their owners.

Riff Raff may have only three legs and one eye, but he keeps his coworkers on their toes! Dr. Bettis rescued him when he came in as a stray in very bad shape. She performed multiple life-saving surgeries on him, and ultimately adopted him as one of her own. At ten years old, he spends his free time reciting Shakespeare and searching for crumbs.
