Dr. Samantha Eichelberger grew up in Allentown, Pennsylvania where her love for all things animals began. She knew from a young age that she wanted to be a veterinarian after going to appointments for her childhood dog Scruffy.
I grew up in a small town in central Florida and I had the benefit of having many pets from cats and dogs to bunnies and horses. I feel very fortunate to have a career that I love.
My mother likes to tell people that when I was 3 days old I “rode” my first horse.
A life-long animal lover, Dr. Newton decided she wanted to be a veterinarian when she was six years old. Fortunately, her family fully supported her dream even at this young age.
