Dr. Amy Green

Michigan State University 2006

Growing up in Detroit, Michigan, Dr. Amy Green always dreamed of becoming a veterinarian to help animals. To fulfill her dreams, she enrolled at Michigan State University, where she completed her undergraduate, master's, and Doctor of Veterinary Medicine degrees. In 2006, she joined a location in Caledonia as an Associate Veterinarian, and in 2010, she became a partner of the hospital. She has been practicing at the Byron Center location since 2017.


When not at work, Dr. Green enjoys spending time with her two beloved cats, Tom and Bebop. She also spends much of her time with her husband, Andy, and their two boys, Bryce and Brody, to whatever event they have that day. With any remaining free time, she likes to indulge in puzzles, reading, and traveling.

Dr. Lori Dehlinger

Her dreams came true when she graduated from Michigan State University with High Honors in 2000. For Dr. Dehlinger, the best part of being a veterinarian is the plethora of new and different challenges it brings every day.


Outside of work, Dr. Dehlinger cherishes spending quality time with her family, gardening, and reading.
