Jodie
Practice Manager
Jodie moved from Kentucky to Texas in 2014, and shortly after, in 2015, she discovered her passion for veterinary medicine. Since then, she has dedicated her career to providing exceptional care to animals and ensuring they receive the love and attention they deserve. Her journey in veterinary medicine led her to practice management in 2019, a role that allows her to combine her leadership skills with her deep commitment to animal welfare. As a Practice Manager, Jodie takes pride in supporting her team, enhancing hospital operations, and creating a welcoming environment for pets and their owners.
In July 2024, Jodie joined Highlands Eldorado Veterinary Hospital, where she is excited to continue her mission of improving the lives of animals and fostering strong relationships with pet parents. She is passionate about making a positive impact in the veterinary field, ensuring both pets and their families receive the highest level of care and service.
Outside of work, Jodie devotes her time to protecting and helping animals of all kinds, a passion that extends beyond her professional life. When she’s not caring for four-legged friends, she can often be found in the kitchen, baking fresh bread of all kinds and experimenting with new recipes. She finds joy in sharing her homemade creations with family and friends. Jodie also cherishes spending quality time with her husband, her mom, and their five beloved dogs, who bring endless love and happiness into her life. Whether at the clinic, in the kitchen, or at home with her furry companions, Jodie’s life is filled with dedication, warmth, and a deep love for animals.
