Dr Angela Melton

Dr Angela Melton grew up outside of Eaton, Ohio. She had a menagerie of animals from a young age and her dad said she wanted to be a veterinarian since she was five. She showed pigs in 4-H and worked at the local vets office when she was in high school. She worked on the college farm while in undergrad at Wilmington College. After graduating from Wilmington, she went to vet school at The Ohio State University College of Veterinary Medicine. She did internships at Fort Worth Zoo and Australia Reptile Park while in vet school. Her first job after vet school was in general practice at Kettering Animal Hospital, then she worked at Northgate Animal Hospital. She wanted to venture into a new experience and opened Happy Paws & Claws Veterinary Clinic. She is excited to serve the community and develop relationships with her clients and their furry, feathered, scaled, or hairless family members.

Dr Melton owns a pit bull named Ferra, a sphynx named Dottie, 3 leopard geckos, and a beardie. She loves to travel out of the country, ride her bike and she has a ridiculous plant addiction.
