Dr. "Sammie" Thompson
Dr. Samantha Thompson has many positions of responsibility at our hospital. She is a practicing veterinarian, co-owner of the practice, and also the hospital administrator/practice manager. Dr. Sammie, as she is affectionately called, moved to this area in 1979 from Kingston, England. Dr. Sammie attended Drew University in NJ for her undergraduate studies. Once she graduated from there, she attended veterinary school at the University of Penn. Dr. Sammie knew ever since she was little that she wanted to be an equine veterinarian. She's always loved horses. Consequently, she pursued her degree in veterinary medicine specializing in equine medicine. She graduated with a doctorate in veterinary medicine from the University of Penn in 1991. Three weeks prior to graduation, she started to date classmate Clair Thompson who also graduated with a doctorate in veterinary medicine at the same time, from the same school. After school, Dr. Sammie worked an internship at an equine medical and surgical referral center in Pittsburgh for a year. She then worked at a general equine practice for 10 years until she injured her back while delivering a baby foal. After she and Dr. Clair married, they bought this practice, and as it started to grow, Dr. Sammie came to the hospital full time as practice manager and veterinarian. She is a great veterinarian and a wonderful team leader.
