About Vet

My professional career has been quite a journey. I grew up in Washington State, and eagerly traveled to the Caribbean to attend Ross Veterinary School. I ended at Purdue University for my clinical rotations where I received the Veterinary Clinical Sciences Award for Exceptional Clinical Proficiency.

Since then, I've been practicing Veterinary Medicine in small animals as an associate doctor, and work as a relief Veterinarian at the local emergency clinic. My specialties are general medicine, nephrology (kidneys and urinary tract) and dermatology (skin, ears, hair, nails).

Dr Tilley is clearly very knowledgeable. She was kind and reassuring about our cat with a tapeworm issue, and got us exactly what we needed as far as medication, next steps, and future considerations.

She was extremely thorough with her questions and really listened to what I had to say and what my concerns were. I love our Cat Care Clinic where we usually take our kitty but they are SO busy and understaffed that I don't really get the time to speak with the doctor about my concerns. I can tell the assistants and they relay the information but it is never the same as speaking directly with the veterinarian. It was worth every penny to have Melissa's full attention so that I could ask questions as we went along. I sometimes feel like pet healthcare is turning into human healthcare where people are just numbers and there is a lack of personal connection and quality bedside manner. It was a great experience and I will definitely do this again if needed! Thank you!
