Our Team

Our trained and compassionate Veterinary Care Team!

Meet the Veterinarians & Team of Raleigh Bartlett Animal Hospital in Memphis! We’re pleased to provide exceptional and personable Veterinary care for your Pets. Many of our Team Members have been with the Practice for over 20 years. Keeping up with the demanding pace of progress in the field of Veterinary medicine is a big part of our mission. Every non-veterinarian Team Member is required to participate in hands on training and 7 annual hours of Continuing Education, and become a Certified Nutrition Advocate through the Hill’s Science Diet program. Several of our Team Members have college degrees in Veterinary Technology and education. Our Veterinarians are extremely committed to knowledge and skill advancement, and annually exceed the State CE requirements. We look forward to meeting you and your Pets!
