Born and raised in Ontario, Canada, Dr Angela Bentley pursued her dream of helping animals
by attending the University of Guelph and completing the Doctor of Veterinary Medicine program at the Ontario Veterinary College in Guelph, Ontario. Dr Bentley tried to avoid the snowy and cold winters in Canada by moving to North Carolina immediately after graduation in 2001.
During her schooling, Dr Bentley took part in an internship at a 24-hour care facility, did some work in Nepal, and did various rotations with exotics and zoo species. Dr Bentley has worked in small animal and emergency medicine since her graduation.
Dr. Bentley spends as much of her free time as possible with her family. She and her husband, Chris, have one child together named Preston and three other children from previous relationships - Katlynn, Christopher, and Dillion. Dr Bentley is owned by Junebug, a white and grey 4 year old short hair - he is the sole feline member of the family at this time. Dr Bentley also has 4 dogs – Sweet Pea, Polly, Lucy and Ginger.
Dr. Jennifer Mercier
Raised on a lake in Maine, Dr. Mercier competed on the USA national gymnastics team before earning her bachelor’s degree in Animal Biology from the University of Utah. She worked as a technician in a veterinary hospital in Salt Lake City, where she fell in love with the animals, the medicine, and the people! After moving to North Carolina, she attended The North Carolina State College of Veterinary Medicine and graduated in 2009. She began working in small animal medicine in Greensboro shortly after that, and joined The Cat Clinic in October of 2010.
Dr. Mercier finds all aspects of veterinary medicine to be challenging and rewarding, but she particularly enjoys helping owners understand how to best care for their fuzzy friends. She has a special place in her heart for kitties, having two of her own, Oscar and Tigger. In her off time, she and her husband Geoff enjoy cycling, yoga, hiking, and vacationing in the mountains.
