Barbara

Veterinary Assistant

Barbara's love for animals has been a lifelong journey. She began working with Dr. Thomas in 1996, and when Dr. Thomas opened Wellspring Animal Hospital, Barbara started working on Saturdays and filled in during school holidays. She continues to work on Saturdays and occasionally during the week. Barbara is also a teacher at General Ray Davis Middle School in Rockdale County, where she has taught a variety of enrichment camps, including Dog Camp for many years.

She has one daughter, Megan, who is married and lives in California. Recently, Barbara married Kevin Matthews. Whenever she can find the time and resources, she loves to travel and has plans to one day retire in Scotland with Dr. Thomas.
