Dr. Vanessa Ali grew up in Plano, Texas, where she resides today. She attended Texas A&M Commerce for undergrad and earned her veterinary degree from Ross University School of Veterinary Medicine. Prior to attending veterinary school, she competed for over 10 years with her Paso Fino Horses. After an internship at Rockwall Equine Center, Dr. Ali worked at PMCOD from 2012 to 2013. She refined her expertise as a veterinarian at several clinics in the DFW area before officially accepting the torch from Dr. Fuller in 2019.
Dr. Ali has many pets, including several horses, a small herd of goats, two dogs, "Saphira" & "Coqui" and two cats, "Fiona" & "Tigger." When she isn't working, she enjoys hanging out with family and friends, riding and showing horses, and cooking.
Dr. Lisa Johnson

Dr. Johnson earned her veterinary degree from Oklahoma State University in 1990 and has been practicing veterinary medicine for over thirty years. Having grown up all over the US due to her father’s military career, she has a strong sense of adventure. She strives to take at least one significant trip each year, preferably internationally (her photo was taken in Ireland!) In additional to travelling, she enjoys music and playing Pokémon Go. She is an active participant in her church's choir, and even performs solo arias.
At home, Dr. Johnson shares her life with a lab mix named “Tyre” and three domestic shorthair cats: “Lilly,” “Nori,” and “Alvin.” Her son is currently serving in the military, and her daughter works as a phlebotomist.
