Lori Mathews, DVM, is the owner and founder of Green Valley Veterinary Care.
Originally from Massachusetts, Dr. Mathews completed her undergraduate education at the University of Massachusetts Amherst before moving to the island of St. Kitts in 2004 to attend Ross University School of Veterinary Medicine She completed her clinical year at Texas A&M University and earned her veterinary degree in 2008.
After graduation, Dr. Mathews moved to Williamsburg, Virginia, where she spent five years working in a busy small-animal general practice while also gaining emergency experience on weekends. She later transitioned to full-time emergency veterinary medicine, further developing her skills in critical care, surgery, and intensive care medicine.
After moving to Ohio, Dr. Mathews continued working in both general practice and emergency medicine before deciding to build her own veterinary practice. In 2019, she founded Green Valley Veterinary Care in Troy with a team of just three employees and a vision of providing exceptional, modern veterinary medicine while creating a personal and supportive experience
for both pets and the people who love them.
As Green Valley Veterinary Care grew, so did that vision. In 2024, the practice moved into its new, expanded facility on West Main Street, allowing Dr. Mathews and her team to offer even more comprehensive care to pets throughout Troy and the Miami Valley.
Dr. Mathews has a special interest in internal medicine, soft tissue surgery, dentistry, and diagnostic ultrasound. She particularly enjoys challenging cases and the variety that comes with veterinary medicine. Her approach combines thorough diagnostics, practical treatment plans, modern medicine, and honest communication with pet owners.
For Dr. Mathews, veterinary medicine has always been about more than treating animals. Green Valley Veterinary Care was built around a simple philosophy: take care of people by taking exceptional care of their pets.
Outside of veterinary medicine, Dr. Mathews enjoys spending time with her children and pets, painting, knitting, yoga, and finding creative projects to dive into.
