Dr. Holmes
DVM
Dr. Robert Holmes is a passionate and dedicated veterinarian who grew up in and around a veterinary practice, closely watching his stepfather excel in the field. This upbringing ignited his love for animals and inspired him to follow in his stepfather's footsteps.
After completing his veterinary education, Dr. Holmes spent five years practicing with both large and small animal medicine, further honing his skills and expanding his knowledge. These years allowed him to develop expertise in diagnosing and treating a wide range of animals, from beloved pets to farm animals.
Dr. Holmes' commitment to providing exceptional care extends beyond the clinic walls. He strongly believes that effective client communication is paramount to ensuring the well-being of his patients. By listening attentively to pet owners' concerns and explaining treatment options in a clear and compassionate manner, he strives to foster a sense of trust and collaboration with each client.
While Dr. Holmes has a genuine passion for all aspects of veterinary medicine, he has a particular interest in surgery. The opportunity to utilize his technical skills and knowledge in the operating room brings him great joy and satisfaction. From routine spay and neuter procedures to complex orthopedic surgeries, Dr. Holmes is always eager to help his patients and restore them to optimal health.
Outside of his professional life, Dr. Holmes finds solace and enjoyment in various activities. He loves spending time on the golf course, where he can clear his mind and appreciate the beauty of nature. Additionally, Dr. Holmes is an active participant in CrossFit, as it allows him to maintain his physical fitness and engage in a supportive community. He also enjoys immersing himself in nature whenever possible, whether it's hiking, camping, or simply taking long walks with his two beloved dogs, Charlie, a loyal Labrador, and Cooper, an energetic golden doodle.
Dr. Holmes cherishes his family above all else. He is happily married to his wife, Kelsey, and together they have two beautiful daughters, Drew and Hadley. Spending quality time with his loved ones is a top priority for Dr. Holmes, and he greatly appreciates the support and understanding they provide as he continues to serve and care for animals in his community.
