Megan Oberer-Gerber, DVM

Veterinarian

Dr. Meg is a Frederick, MD native who first came to PA to earn a bachelor's degree of Biology from York College of Pennsylvania. After earning her undergraduate degree, she spent a year working in a microbiology research lab followed by her four year veterinary education at the Virginia-Maryland College of Veterinary Medicine (Virginia Tech). When it came time to settle down, Dr. Meg and her husband were excited to return to Pennsylvania in the summer of 2022. 

Her drive to help animals started from a young age; Dr. Meg has been working with animals that are not her own since she started volunteering at her local animal shelter as a pre-teen. Her spark to pursue a career as a veterinarian, however, started with her childhood dog named Boots. Boots had very bad skin disease that meant she had to go to the vet frequently for help with pain, inflammation, and infections. Dr. Meg’s dreams to be a vet were solidified by helping care for Boots- she could see how hard her vet was working to make Boots feel comfortable and wanted to be able to help others the same way her vet helped Boots and her family. 

In her career as a veterinarian, Dr. Meg finds the most joy in building relationships with clients and their pets. She has a personal approach to practicing medicine and is passionate about helping people find the best way to support their pets within their means. She understands the special bonds that people and their pets share and wants to be a part of supporting your pet’s long, healthy life.

In her personal life, Dr. Meg has had an array of pets including dogs, cats, guinea pigs, hamsters, gerbils, a rabbit, and fish. Currently, she shares her home with her husband, their pitbull (Lucy), hound mix (Tanks), tabby cats (Fred and Jim) and guinea pigs (Russet and Yukon). It’s her dream to one day also own property with chickens and bees. In her free time, she enjoys listening to live music, camping/hiking in the woods, and creating quilts.
