Veterinarian Overview
Dr. Martha Davis is a General Practitioner and the owner of Terra Linda Veterinary Hospital. She has been a practicing veterinarian since graduating from veterinary school in 1984 and owner of the Terra Linda Veterinary Hospital since 1998. Though she was born in Fort Worth, Texas, Dr. Davis spent her early childhood in Maryland where she was surrounded by animals of all kinds. We spent a lot of time at our neighbors farm and to this day I still love the smell of a barn, she says. There was a horse that I loved who lived across the street and some of my moms students would bring their pony over for us to ride. We also had chickens, goats, cats, dogs, and even kept a racer snake in the basement to control the rodents. Perhaps more than any other experience, she says, it was her time in Maryland that compelled her to become a veterinarian. I was the kid who was always bringing home the injured animal, she says, and I have always felt connected with animals and the natural world. I feel a spiritual connection with nature and animals and I feel very blessed to be able to care for animals as my career.
