Veterinarians

Tiffany Fu, DVM

Dr. Tiffany Fu
DVM

Dr. Fu grew up in North Potomac/Gaithersburg of Montgomery County, and graduated from Thomas S. Wootton High School and the University of Maryland, College Park. She graduated from the University of Pennsylvania College of Veterinary Medicine in 2010 and has been practicing in the area since then. Dr. Fu has always loved general practice because she gets to build long-lasting relationships with clients, educate families about preventative care, be the first to get her patients the help they need, and treat pets from the start to the very end of their lives. More recently, she has been excited to continue her own education and expand what she can offer to patients by studying acupuncture and rehabilitation therapy. Her passion is to support families in their goal of maximizing their animals' quality of life for as long as possible. 
 
In her not-so-free time, Dr. Fu is a wife and mother of three small humans, one very old Catahoula Leopard Dog named Bubba, one young scruffy mutt named Dahlia, one hefty orange cat named Sullivan, and one ace hunter cat named Sakura. She also is the keeper of several beta fish, frogs, snails, too many plants and is somewhat of a failure worm farmer and vegetable gardener. She likes to take long walks and hikes and spends all the rest of her time cooking for all these creatures as well as extended family and friends.
Mark Olcott, DVM

Mark Olcott
DVM

Dr. Olcott, a native of upstate NY, obtained his bachelor's degree in biology from the State University of New York at Geneseo. He then earned his Doctor of Veterinary Medicine from Cornell University in 1995 and, in 2013, his MBA from the Robert H. Smith School of Business at the University of Maryland.

Dr. Olcott was a partner for several years in a multi-doctor small animal practice before leaving to start his own mobile ultrasonography business. More recently, he worked as an Emergency Veterinarian at a local referral hospital, where he was named by his peers as one of the Top Veterinarians in Northern Virginia, and as a relief veterinarian in a small number of high-quality general practices in the Metro DC area.

Dr. Olcott lives in Boyds, Maryland, with his wife, three children, five dogs, two cats, and a few reptiles. In his spare time, he breeds and trains Pudelpointers, a type of versatile hunting dog, and has successfully competed at the international level in hunting dog field trials. He is also a NAVHDA judge.

Cathy Emery, DVM

Dr. Cathy Emery

She was also a member of Phi Beta Kappa and Golden Key National Honor Society.

Dr. Emery graduated from veterinary school at Cornell University’s College of Veterinary Medicine in 2003. While in school, she was a member of Phi Zeta National Veterinary Honor Society and served as president of the veterinary fraternity Omega Tau Sigma. She joined Buckeystown Veterinary Hospital in 2003. Dr. Emery has special interest in exotic animal medicine (pocket pets and zoo animals), surgery, equine medicine, and neonatology.

When not working, Dr. Emery enjoys riding Merit (her thoroughbred mare), brewing homemade beer and mead, reading voraciously, and writing. She lives with three cats, Max, Stevie, and Anabelle and a hound mix named Milo.

Tanya Andrews, Hospital Director

Tanya Andrews
Hospital Director

Tanya Andrews brings both leadership and compassion to her role as Hospital Director at Buckeystown Veterinary Hospital. Growing up in Baltimore, her love for animals began at the age of five when she welcomed her first dog into the family. Today, Tanya focuses on developing team members, supporting doctors, and ensuring the highest standards of patient care and client service.

What Tanya enjoys most is fostering strong bonds between pets and their families, and being part of a team deeply committed to helping animals thrive. At home, she shares life with her two “foster fail” cats, Gilbert and B, who keep her on her toes. Outside of work, Tanya loves spending time near the water, playing pickleball, and making memories with family and friends. Her approachable spirit and dedication to both people and pets make her an invaluable part of the Buckeystown team.
