Dr. Sam Doverspike / Owner

Dr. Doverspike grew up an hour south of Franklin, near New Castle.  Franklin and the surrounding areas has always felt like home to him.  Sam enjoys all the challenges of veterinary medicine, having a special interest in orthopedic surgery as well as diagnostic ultrasound.  It's his goal to provide the quality care you would expect for your pet with the friendliness and compassion you find in a small town.

Dr. Doverspike's wife and daughter have been a wonderful part of his veterinary career, often helping him with after hour emergencies, lending a hand whenever needed or just coming to the clinic to see the animals.  They have both worked at the clinic, making work for Dr. Doverspike a family affair.  When he is not at work, Dr. Doverspike enjoys spending time with his family and pets.  Sam and his wife enjoy casual bicycling and they like to take short weekend trips.  Dr. Doverspike has developed a fondness for woodworking and enjoys spending time in the workshop making big pieces of wood into small bowls and large piles of sawdust.
