Specialty | Emergency

Dr. McCutcheon has lived a variety of places ranging from Alaska to Brazil! She began her undergraduate education at the University of Alaska and earned her Bachelors of Science from Middle Tennessee State University. She obtained her Doctorate of Veterinary Medicine from the University of Illinois. Dr. McCutcheon continued her veterinary education by completing a one-year, small animal rotating internship at Pittsburgh Veterinary Specialty and Emergency Center. She traded in the hills and bridges of Pittsburgh for the beautiful beaches of South Carolina where she practiced as an emergency veterinarian. When the opportunity to move to the live music capital of the world presented itself in 2016, she jumped on it! She’s been with AVES ever since, working her way up to Emergency Department Head. Her clinical interests include wound management, toxicities, and autoimmune disease.

She shares her home with her husband, daughter, a black lab, and two cats. She enjoys spending time with her family and watching her daughter grow and learn!
