Dr. Fred Bennett

Dr. Fred Bennett:

After growing up in central Ohio, Dr. Bennett went off to Penn State to study Ag Engineering and found his love of cows and other large animals. He graduated from Penn State with a BS in Ag Mechanization in 1984 and then from The Ohio State University College of Veterinary Medicine with his DVM in 1988. After an externship at Lisbon Veterinary Clinic during his senior year, he was hired on after graduation. He is a member of the American Veterinary Medical Association, the American Association of Bovine Practitioners (cattle vets), the Ohio Dairy Vets, and serves on the Ohio Department of Agriculture Cattle Health Advisory Board.

Dr. Bennett's outside interests include vegetable gardening, beekeeping, woodworking, running, and hiking. He's active in Salem First United Methodist Church including team teaching 5th & 6th grade Sunday School. His wife Yvonne is a music teacher by training. Their children are still in school - Emily is in medical school and Phil is studying mechanical engineering. Along with their honeybees, they share their house with a Greyhound, two cats, and tropical fish.

Dr. Bennett spends four days a week going to farms and one day a week in the office. His primary focus is dairy and beef cattle health with a robust mix of small ruminants and equine. In-house he enjoys challenging surgeries. But, as he is often heard telling the pre-vet and vet students, "the best part of clinical practice is the long-term relationships we build with our clients."

Dr. Brittany Truax: Dr. Brittany Truax

Dr. Brittany Truax grew up on a small farm in south-central Pennsylvania where she quickly discovered her love of animals. Convincing her parents to invest in sheep, Dr. Truax grew a small flock of Oxford breeding sheep that she showed at a national level. When she was old enough to join 4-H, Dr. Truax also began showing cattle and soon had a handful of Maine-influenced cattle. This passion led Dr. Truax to Virginia Tech where she obtained a B.S. in Animal Science followed by The Ohio State University where she earned her Doctorate of Veterinary Medicine.

Dr. Truax’s free time is usually dictated by the needs of her corgi, Lexie. They can usually be spotted hiking, finding fun places to swim, and trying new taco restaurants. She is currently rebuilding her cattle herd, advancing her crossbred flock of sheep, and serves as a consulting advisor for her family’s goat herd.

Dr. Truax is excited to work with both companion and large animals and has a special interest in small ruminants, reproduction, and show livestock.
