Dr. Holly Powers grew up in Lancaster, PA, where she was always surrounded by animals and nature. She went on to the University of Delaware (Go Blue Hens!) and received her B.S. in Pre-Veterinary Medicine and Animal Biosciences in 2012. Later that summer she began veterinary school at The University of Pennsylvania, College of Veterinary Medicine, where she developed a strong interest in emergency and critical care medicine. After graduating in 2016, she completed a small animal rotating internship at The Regional Veterinary Referral Center in Springfield, VA.

Her professional interests include surgery and emergency/trauma cases. Since moving to Southern Maryland, she has enjoyed summer days on the bay with her husband and two Labradors, Ying and Yang. Their most recent furry family addition is a cat named Saphira.
