Dr. Melissa Robinson graduated from the University of Missouri-Columbia College of Veterinary Medicine in 2010. Her undergraduate work was completed at Missouri State University. Since graduating veterinary school she has worked in the greater Springfield area, focusing on small animal medicine and surgery.

Dr. Robinson always wanted to become a veterinarian and her passion for animals has never dimmed. She grew up with dogs and cats, and eventually horses when her family moved to Republic. She has trained horses and loves them, but keeps them a hobby, focusing her career on small animals. She stills lives in Republic with her animals Kilo, Milli, Gidget and Zatti.

When she’s not caring for her patients she can be found with her husband Randy and children Aubrey and Logan at a local park or hiking trail.
