Dr. Sinclair
DVM
Dr. Sinclair was born in South Africa. After a brief period in Switzerland, she moved to Omaha, Nebraska at the age of 11. Following her undergraduate studies, the family relocated to Florida, where she developed a strong attachment to the area.
She earned a Bachelor of Science degree in Biology at Creighton University in Omaha, followed by a Doctor of Veterinary Medicine degree at the University of Florida. Upon completion of her studies, Dr. Sinclair moved to Australia for a year to undertake an internship at an equine hospital. Upon returning to the U.S., she worked as an ambulatory equine vet in Ocala for several years before deciding to become a full-time mom and start her family.
Dr. Sinclair’s love for animals dates back to her childhood, as she grew up surrounded by both large and small animals. As of today, her furry family includes two boxers named Magnus and Jackson, as well as two Siamese cats, Sophie (affectionately known as the “little old lady”) and Sam (“the little fat kitty”). Additionally, she cares for two little ponymares named Lil and Fizzy.
When she’s not at work, you’re likely to find Dr. Sinclair tending to her garden at her farm in Ocala or spending quality time with her husband, two children, two dogs, two cats, and two horses. She looks forward to expanding her menagerie by venturing into beekeeping and adding chickens to their happy little zoo. Dr. Sinclair also has aspirations of growing as much as she can in the orchard behind their house.
