Dr. Adams grew up in the corn fields of rural Illinois and attended Purdue University for her undergraduate degree in animal science before earning her veterinary degree at Ohio State University’s College of Veterinary Medicine. Upon graduating in 2009, Dr. Adams relocated to southern Maryland to work in a small animal practice and then moved to northern Virginia to serve in a larger organization. She also worked in a foundation-supported low-cost clinic, where she helped the community’s pet owners at a reduced expense for the clientele. 

During the pandemic, she completed her training in rehabilitation therapy at Chi University in Florida. She is a Certified Canine Rehabilitation Veterinarian (CCRV).

After years of planning, Dr. Adams’ longtime dream of owning her clinic took full form in 2014. She moved to Midland in April of that year and began renovating the River Rock Animal Hospital facility. The doors opened in late July, and Dr. Adams and her staff have been happily serving the pets and animal owners of the area ever since. Dr. Adams is particularly fond of challenging cases and intricate diagnostic work. Most of all, though, she loves imparting knowledge to her clients that will better their pets’ lives in the future.
