Veterinary Hospital in Apex, NC

Dr. Brooke Bennes is originally from Denver, NC. She initially traveled to the Raleigh area to attend North Carolina State University for her bachelor’s degree in biology but ended up staying for veterinary school as well. She permanently moved to Angier, NC, and now resides there with her husband, chickens, and two cats, Porky and Dax.

Dr. Bennes enjoys preventive medicine, specifically educating her clients about the importance of flea, tick, and heartworm prevention, as well as spaying and neutering. She is also passionate about managing chronic conditions in her patients, like allergies and arthritis, and improving their quality of life with different therapy options.

When she is not at the hospital, Dr. Bennes is probably perusing the aisles of the nearest TJ Maxx or planning her next Disney trip. She enjoys gardening, swimming in her stock tank pool, and crafty activities like sewing and scrapbooking.

Dr. Mette Tomkins graduated from North Carolina State University’s School of Veterinary Medicine. Upon graduation, she joined an animal hospital in Chapel Hill where she spent the next decade as a senior veterinarian and became the lead investigator in a clinical trial for new feline pain medication.

When not practicing veterinary medicine, Dr. Tomkins divides her time between her home in Fearrington Village and the NC coast, where she enjoys gardening, boating, hiking, and kayaking, and spending time with her two cats.
