If you’re looking for intelligence and quick thinking, then let Jill Greisman manage your animal's health care.

She is certified in acupuncture/manual manipulation and enjoys advising people on the best way to manage their farm health. When she isn't treating other people's animals she's riding one of her horses in summer shows.

Dr. Mary Kate Metch
Associate Veterinarian
Dr. Mary Kate Metch grew up and went to college in Virginia. She worked in small animal clinics before attending veterinary school at the University of Pennsylvania. Dr. Mary Kate quickly became interested in large animal medicine in vet school, particularly food animal medicine. Some other areas of interest include small ruminant parasite management and dairy production medicine, especially transition cow and calf management. Her favorite farm animals are goats, but also enjoys working with camelids!
We're lucky she got hooked on large animals and ambulatory medicine and relocated to New York with her husband and son. In her free time, Dr. Mary Kate & her family enjoy hiking, gardening, working on home renovations, and snowboarding.

Although new to large animal medicine, Allie has quite a bit of experience working with small animals. When she isn't answering phones or working at a dairy barn, she loves to ride along with our vets as this is what she hopes to do one day!
In her spare time, Allie loves baking and playing with her kittens, Nami and Luffy.
