Keleigh Collinsworth
Keleigh completed a two-week externship at DoveLewis during her final year of veterinary school. She says she was profoundly inspired by the remarkable teamwork and collaborative approach exhibited by the entire team in delivering exceptional care to each patient. Her experience at DoveLewis left such a lasting impression that she decided to relocate across the country to join this extraordinary group of professionals for her internship in 2023. Keleigh greatly appreciates DoveLewis' unwavering commitment to cultivating a learning-oriented environment that fosters continuous growth and development among its staff members at all levels. She is also deeply drawn to the organization's nonprofit status, which enables them to offer an array of invaluable resources to both animals and pet owners within the Portland community.
"I appreciate the wide variety of pet owners that I am able to serve through DoveLewis' community-based programs. I had such an impactful time here during my internship and I couldn't imagine practicing medicine anywhere else."
