Dr. Musick’s heart and passion has always resided in veterinary medicine. After achieving her undergraduate in animal science with a minor in chemistry from Sul Ross State University she went onto Louisiana State University to earn her DVM in 2022. For a time she worked as a veterinary technician with Dr. Talley at Pet Western Animal Hospital and is excited to return to serve our client and patient family again.
