Meet Dr. Sandy Jernigan
For Dr. Sandy Jernigan, veterinary medicine is a calling that blends her passion for animals and people with a commitment to lifelong health and happiness. Guided by compassion, communication, and collaboration, Dr. Jernigan believes great care extends beyond treating symptoms—it’s about fostering trust, educating clients, and addressing whole-body wellness for pets.
With over eight years of experience in small animal medicine, Dr. Jernigan takes pride in tailoring care plans to each pet’s unique needs, recognizing that the “gold standard” isn’t always the only solution. She values building meaningful relationships with pet owners, ensuring they feel informed, empowered, and supported in every decision.
Outside the clinic, Dr. Jernigan enjoys exploring the outdoors through hiking, kayaking, and visiting national parks. A dedicated mother of two, she balances her passion for veterinary care with her love for family, art, and reading. Her holistic approach to life is reflected in her practice, where she strives to create a compassionate environment for pets, clients, and her team alike.
“What inspires me most,” Dr. Jernigan shares,“is the joy of seeing a pet recover and thrive, knowing we’ve made a difference for their family. These moments remind me why I chose this profession and why I continue to love what I do every day.”
