Dr. Hanson and her husband, also a veterinarian, practiced in Puerto Rico for several years before settling in Gainesville.

She is also a Venture Crew Advisor and a member of the Order of the Arrow. As a BSA leader. she has taken the Scouts on many trips, some as far away as the Grand Canyon.
She loves to garden and spends as much time outside in nature as possible.

While Dr. Miller was born in Florida, her family left for Georgia when she was very young. She now resides in Cleveland, GA with her husband, her two young sons and four dogs and one cat. Just don’t let the cat hear that- he thinks he’s a dog too!
She developed a love for animals while taking care of a menagerie of pets when she was young.
Dr. Miller graduated from White County High School. She attended Valdosta State University where she received a Bachelor of Science degree in Biology before attending Tuskegee University School of Veterinary Medicine. As a vet student, she did externships in West Virginia and Tennessee.
Before going to Veterinary school, she worked at Murrayville Veterinary Clinic as a Vet Assistant. We are thrilled she returned to our practice.
Dr. Miller loves to spend her free time with the loves of her life, her sons. She loves to read, now more children’s books than anything else, and she loves to work out and travel.

Dr. Buckallew was born and raised in Tamassee, South Carolina.
He graduated from Presbyterian College in Clinton, SC receiving a Bachelor of Science in Biology. While he first anticipated medical school, he soon decided that was not the right choice for him.
While volunteering at a veterinary clinic in S.C., he realized veterinary medicine was where he belonged. Dr. Buckallew completed his doctorate in veterinary medicine at the University of Georgia in 2016.
Fortunately for us, after graduation, he decided to put down roots in our beautiful state!
He met his longtime girlfriend Kimmy while they both worked at a veterinary clinic in S.C. They share a love for animals- obviously! They have 6 dogs and 3 cats, including a foster dog named Jax.
Dr. Buckallew likes to spend his free time gardening and doing home improvements. He loves to go fishing, hiking and enjoys reading a good book.

Born in Corpus Christi, Texas, Dr. West was raised in Ohio and Louisiana. She graduated from LSU with an undergraduate degree in animal science and then received her veterinary degree there in 2017.
She is particularly interested in dermatology – in the south skin issues are a common problem. She will have plenty of practice!
Dr. West grew up with many animals and was intrigued by the challenge of communicating with them - she always knew she would be a vet.
Now married, she met her husband Drew when they attended high school together in Louisiana – he is a PH. D student in Chemistry at UGA. Dr. West likes to spend time outdoors with her husband and dog Mabel. She rescued Mabel while at veterinary school. Dr. West fit right in with us almost immediately-we are so glad she's here.
