Dr. Ashley Boyd

Veterinarian/Owner

Dr. Boyd was raised here in Ocala Florida on a true working thoroughbred horse farm. Even as a young child she knew that she was meant to be a veterinarian. On the farm, she was able to surround myself with animals of all kinds (in fact Dr. Boyd even had the privilege to ride and handle three horses that ran in the Kentucky Derby!).

Dr. Boyd attended Oak Hall High School in Gainesville and then continued and received my Bachelors in Biology at Stetson University. She later returned to Gainesville for vet school to attended University of Florida’s College of Veterinary Medicine where she graduated with honors in 2006 (Go Gator’s!).

After school, Dr. Boyd began her exciting career at Companion Animal Hospital with Dr. Doug and Susan Lammers for the following 11 years.  Eventually filling the Medical Director position when VCA Animal Hospital bought the practice.

Through the years of practice, Dr. Boyd found her niche in veterinary medicine. She loves her clients and patients and wanted to create an environment where herself, her team, and the clients could work together as one unit (like a family) making their pets’ lives better. The idea for Fox Creek Animal Hospital was created March 2016. A very long 1.5 years later; all of the love, energy and even some tears finally paid off when Fox Creek Animal Hospital’s doors opened on December 9th 2017. To all of Dr. Boyd’s clients and patients… Welcome home!

Dr. Katie McClain

Continuing education and incorporating interventional medicine is also very important to Dr. McClain who has pursued further studying and is certified in Canine and Feline Rehabilitation and Physical Therapy in July 2018. She is always happy to be learning new things and incorporating her knowledge into the care she gives her patients. We appreciate the knowledge that she imparts to those around her, enhancing all of our strengths, and promoting education among her clients.
