Sarah Jones, DVM (she/her)
Assistant Medical Director
Dr. Jones joined us in June 2019. She earned a BS in Animal Biology, an MS in Animals & Public Policy, and a DVM from UC Davis.
She became a veterinarian because she felt it was the best way for her to help animals and the people who want them to be a part of their lives. “I started my first veterinary job in high school at a small animal practice just helping around the office in any little way I could. Knowing that I wanted a career helping animals, I continued to work in veterinary clinics and animal shelters until I realized the role as a veterinarian combines my passion for helping animals with serving people in the community.”
Dr. Jones chose to join us because of The Grand Lake Veterinary Hospital’s emphasis on client education, integration of holistic therapy with western medicine, and commitment to quality hospice care for senior patients. She felt that these values fit well with her own skills and ideals. In her own work, she strives to provide her clients with the necessary information and options, allowing them to be a part of the process in making the best decision for their pets.
We love that Dr. Jones never wants to stop learning and she makes that clear with every patient and client she interacts with. We’re excited to have Dr. Jones, her husband, daughter, and ridiculous cat, Ty, as a part of The Grand Lake Vet Family. When she’s not in the hospital, she loves going to as many baseball games as possible (Go Ballers!), exploring new places in Oakland and traveling any and everywhere.
