LCHS welcomes Dr. Kristyn “Mandy” Trotter as the full-time veterinarian on staff, beginning January 4, 2021.
Lake City – October 10, 2020 – The Lake City Humane Society is pleased to announce they have secured Dr. Kristyn “Mandy” Trotter as their full-time veterinarian effective January 4, 2021. Beginning in October, she will serve on our campus on a part-time basis until she begins in the new year. "We are very pleased to be able to welcome a full-time vet," says Executive Director Robin Ward, "Not only will this allow for an expedited transition for animals coming from animal services and moving into adoptions, but this will also allow for us to care for more of the community’s companions."
The Lake City Humane Society is a full-service humane society, serving the community’s needs through adoptions, the clinic and animal services. Comprised of dedicated staff who always go above and beyond their call of duty to ensure the best care for the animals, along with a constant fellowship of volunteers and help from the community, the Lake City Humane Society has been able to care for over 5,000 animals each year.
Kristyn "Mandy" Trotter is a Lake City native. She has been working around the north Florida region for 10 years now and has found her calling in not just small animal veterinary medicine, but a love for shelter medicine and low-cost medicine. She has wanted to come back to help her community and strives to provide good medicine at an affordable cost. She and her fiancé, James, have a 3-year-old son that they are raising in Lake City. In their free time, they love to travel to find new restaurants and live music. They spend a lot of time outdoors, camping and going to rivers or beaches.
LCHS is preparing for an expansion of campus with the addition of the James Montgomery Animal Wellness Center, which will house a variety of services, including a low-cost spay and neuter clinic for families in the community as well as a new adoption center. For information on our current fundraising efforts in support of the new center, please contact Jordan Regar.
