Dr. Newman grew up in Richmond, VA, and graduated from the University of Virginia. Following a brief stint in the publishing industry, she returned to school to pursue her life-long dream of working with animals. She started in the field as a licensed veterinary technician in a veterinary surgery center, and while she enjoyed the challenges of anesthesia, she ultimately decided to go back to school one last time to become a veterinarian. She graduated from Virginia-Maryland College of Veterinary Medicine in 2022. Dr. Newman’s professional interests include dentistry and surgery. She also has a special interest in behavior medicine, and she is Fear Free certified. Outside of work, she enjoys wildlife photography and spending time on the water with her Rottweiler mix, Boone.
