Highland Veterinary Clinic

Carol Gormley, BS, RN: Practice Manager In 1976, Carol helped Dr. Gormley to establish his first practice near her family's farm in Evansville, Indiana. She brought with her both her skills and experience in hospital administration gleaned from her time as an ER nurse, and her educational background in psychology and ethology (the study of animal behavior) to help build a successful veterinary clinic. Today, her professional interest involves a desire to help the clinic evolve, with a progressive view of veterinary medicine--re-assigning the emphasis that has been placed on vaccinations, and instead placing the appropriate level of importance on preventative health screening and care with the whole animal in mind. Carol has engineered the economic and educational aspects of our Lifestage Wellness Program and should be credited with her part in designing the program toward giving our clients the greatest benefit per dollars spent. Over the years, Carol has given a great deal of her time to community and social causes both as a volunteer and a leader, including co-founding the Ark Crisis Prevention Nursery with Gail Reicken as a project for the Junior League of Evansville, and serving as a President for the Junior League. Carol enjoyed coaching soccer when her kids were younger, but today enjoys gardening, ethology, and spiritual studies as well as music, reading and swimming and of course, her Border Collie.
Molly W. BS/BA: Veterinary Technician Intern In 2001, a few years after graduating from the University of Evansville, Molly decided to join the family business and pursue a career in Veterinary Technology. She's currently enrolled in the later stages of the Veterinary Technology Distance Learning Program through Purdue University in hopes of receiving her licensure as an RVT (Registered Veterinary Technician) in 2007. She carries on the family tradition of caring for companion animals as she would her own, but also enthusiastically aids her father in the wild bird rehabilitation program at Highland. She takes a special interest professionally in clinical pathology, intensive care nursing, client education, exotic animal health, and wildlife rescue. Molly is a member of the International Wildlife Rehabilitation Council. On a personal level, Molly enjoys actively pursuing her dream of co-owning a farmstay inn and wildlife rehabilitation facility. She enjoys theatre, literature, creative writing, spiritual studies, and homestead farming. She and her husband Kim, live with five cats, four dogs, and a rabbit on a portion of the family farm. |
