Dr. Dyer has spent 20+ years as a doctor embracing the full diversity of veterinary medicine, practicing in small animal, large animal, exotic and emergency care. After years of experience came the desire to build a great hospital of her own: Lake Geneva Veterinary Hospital (now Family Pet Practice) was purchased in 2004, followed by Wixom Veterinary Clinic (now Wixom Family Pet Practice) in 2011. She has a strong dedication to all pets and the families who love them, as evidenced by her own multi-species family of 2 boys, dogs, cats, rabbits, horses and sheep. In her free time, you will find her outdoors, riding horses, kayaking, camping or SCUBA diving. 

Dr. Foster went to Michigan State University for her undergraduate studiesand veterinary school. She graduated in 2005 and practiced in Chicago,Livonia and Clinton Township before joining Wixom Family Pet Practice. Shelives with her husband, 2 children and her Bernese Mountain Dog, Scrubs andblack cat, Satara. She enjoys traveling, reading, going up north with herfamily and crafting.

From a young age Maureen knew that her multi-tasking ability, bubbly personality, attention to detail, and desire to learn and educate would secure her a place in the veterinary community. Her willingness and ability to learn new technical skills and further her education have been a benefit to all! She has a passion for obedience training, Dobermans and client communication. When not greeting you with a smile at WFPP, you can find her playing with her son at the park or camping with her family.

Growing up Ashley was lucky to be surrounded by animals. She grew up on a farm and loved spending her days outside with all of the animals. Her family had cows, pigs, ducks, geese chickens, rabbits and dogs. As a team member of WFPP Ashley loves being able to provide outstanding care for her clients and their companions, to live a long happy life. In Ashley's spare time she enjoys spending time with daughter Lillianna and her golden retriever Nala, taking long walks, playing fetch, gardening, crafting, and cooking.

Lisa comes with over 30 years of animal experience. She enjoys working with animals but her true passion are cats - she is a feline fanatic! Her “low stress handling” will make your cats visit a pawsome experience. Another one of Lisa’s passions is educating owners on the many reasons not to declaw cats.

When not at work she enjoys spending time with her husband, her cats, gardening and boating.

Andree has always loved animals since she can remember. She got her first pet at 12 years old. She graduated from Sanford Brown College with a degree in Applied Sciences and obtained her Veterinary Technician License in 2013. When not working hard as an LVT, she loves cooking and trying new recipes, watching home renovation shows, and would love to renovate a home in the future!

I am an animal lover that started in the veterinary field after several years working as a Chemist. I graduated from Eastern Michigan University in 2013 with a bachelor's in Chemistry and obtained my Veterinary technician license in 2017. In my free time I like to paint and compete in triathlons. 

Karen is a Licensed Veterinary Technician who graduated from Macomb Community College.

She has a passion for owners to be knowledgeable and pets to be comfortable during their appointments. In her spare time she enjoys being with her husband, step daughter, cat named Monkey, and mouse named Panda.
