Sports Medicine and Rehabilitation Specialist
Dr. Britt has always had a passion for animals and knew early on that veterinary medicine was her calling. After graduating from the Ross University School of Veterinary Medicine, where she completed her clinical year at NC State College of Veterinary Medicine, she dove into the field with enthusiasm. Her journey began as a research associate in both medical and veterinary research, working with a pre-clinical oncology research company and a startup focused on mastitis diagnostics for dairy farmers. Additionally, she gained invaluable hands-on experience as a veterinary assistant in a small animal rehabilitation clinic.
Once Dr. Britt earned her DVM, she chose to specialize in sports medicine and rehabilitation, a field that allows her to bridge her love for animals with her desire to enhance their quality of life.

Dr. Britt has a particular soft spot for senior dogs, striving to help them age gracefully and maintain mobility—after all, mobility is life!
Outside of her practice, Dr. Britt enjoys cooking, baking, and traveling, especially cherishing time spent with her family, which includes her son, husband, two dogs, and two cats. She also tends to a variety of semi-feral outdoor cats. A fan of the holidays and Walt Disney World, she makes the most of her time away from work.
