Dr. Melissa Wise

Dr. Wise graduated from the University of Findlay with a B.S in Animal Science and Biology. She then graduated from The Ohio State University College of Veterinary Medicine in 2015. Dr. Wise discovered her passion for veterinary medicine at a young age, inspired by her beloved family dog, Sparky. She has a particular passion for internal medicine and emergency/urgent care. When Dr. Wise is not in the clinic, she enjoys caring for her lively home zoo, which includes dogs, cats, chickens, ducks, a bearded dragon, a rabbit, parakeets and green-cheeked conures. She manages this busy household with the help of her husband and their four children.
