Dr. Ellsberry is originally from the small town of Corte Madera in Northern California. She first began her career in service to our country as an Aviation Electronics Technician where she served 7 years before starting school to pursue her childhood dream of becoming a veterinarian. Dr. Ellsberry was accepted to and completed a Doctorate in Veterinary Medicine from The Ohio State University in 2002. She has worked in small animal general practice and emergency medicine throughout her career as well as continuing to serve in the Army Reserve. Her years of experience have allowed her to become proficient with managing critical and complicated medical cases and with soft tissue surgeries. She has special interest in preventive care, geriatric medicine, client education and the human-animal-bond.
Dr. Ellsberry is excited to be opening Pacific City Veterinary Care with her long-time friend and former associate Dr. Bevin Marzullo. They look forward to settling in Seattle where they can practice their brand of family-centered care and high-quality medicine. They hope to foster strong, long-lasting relationships with their patients and their patient's loving families.
When she's not caring for her patients, Dr. Ellsberry keeps busy caring for her dog, 3 cats and 4 chickens. She also is passionate about working with rescues to find forever homes for abandoned and abused animals. She enjoys walking and hiking on all the trails the Pacific Northwest has to offer and especially enjoys traveling, meeting new people, and experiencing different cultures. She has been fortunate to have visited all 50 states and 24 countries.
