Meet the friendly staff at Pikesville Animal Hospital!
Dr. Rachel Hughes grew up in Montgomery County, Maryland. After receiving her bachelor's degree in biology from University of North Carolina- Wilmington in 2011 she traveled up north to Canada to complete her Doctorate of Veterinary at Ontario Veterinary College. Once completing her studies there, she decided to escape the cold and finally moved back 'home' to Maryland.
For the first couple years after graduating she started her career working at a mixed animal practice where she treated a variety of species including horses, ruminants, as well as dogs and cats. She then transitioned her focus to primarily treating companion animals, and has truly loved getting to know all the patients and the challenge of creating a treatment plan that works best for them and their family.
Her special veterinary interests include soft tissue surgery, dentistry, emergency medicine and working with geriatric animals.
In her spare time, Dr. Hughes enjoys camping, spending time with friends and family, travelling, gardening and snuggling with her cat, Indi.
