Meet Our Team

From a young age, Scarlett knew she wanted to work with animals and spent her life preparing to become a veterinarian. Scarlett graduated from Augusta State University with her bachelor’s degree in science and completed her Doctorate in Veterinary Medicine at the University of Georgia Veterinary School. As she became a veterinarian, her passion focused on helping unwanted and underserved pets, and she works closely with animal rescue groups to provide services for those pets. Her free time is spent caring for her horses and her seven dogs and cats, which are all rescued animals with medical needs.

Dr. Poppy graduated from the University of Tennessee in 2007. Native to the CSRA area, she enjoys providing quality healthcare for the community’s furry small animal companions. Dr. Poppy also provides healthcare for avian and exotic pets, including select wildlife for the Savannah River Ecology Lab. The most gratifying part of veterinary medicine is saving lives and improving the quality of life of her patients. In her spare time, she enjoys nature, walking, spending time with her husband, her five woofs, and one meow.

Dr. Ivey was born and raised in Augusta. In 2019, she graduated from Ross University School of Veterinary Medicine. After spending a few years away, her and her husband decided to move back home to be closer to family. She has 2 wild toddlers and a “plethora” of animals at home that keep her busy. Dr. Ivey especially loves her feline patients and doing animal rescue work. She cannot wait to join the team!

Elizabeth joined the veterinary community in 2020 and is currently at school to complete and obtain her veterinary technician license. She is very passionate about rescue work and the good TNR programs provide the local communities. She shares her home with her fiancé and their mini zoo of 3 dogs, 5 cats, and 2 guinea pigs. In her free time, she often competes in local dog shows and training events in Aiken or hiking and camping.
