Dr. Jonathan Fear
DVM, Medical Director
Dr. Jonathan Fear joined the Buckeystown Veterinary Hospital team as Medical Director in September 2022. He graduated from Virginia-Maryland College of Veterinary Medicine in 2019 and has experience with other rural mixed animal practices.
Dr. Fear primarily sees dogs, cats and ruminants and has a particular interest in soft tissue surgery, prevention and production management. He has a skill for explaining medical problems and solutions to clients in a way they can understand, so we are happy to have him onboard here in Buckeystown.
In his free time, Dr. Fear enjoys working on his home and yard, going to the gym and anything outdoors-related! He has one cat of his own named Pes.

Dr. Mary Ann McKissick
VMD
A native of Harrisburg, PA, Dr. McKissick has always had a passion for animals and science, so a career in veterinary medicine was a natural fit for her. After receiving her Bachelor of Science degree from Penn State University, she went on to earn her veterinary degree from the University of Pennsylvania.
Prior to joining Buckeystown Veterinary Hospital in 2016, Dr. McKissick gained experience working at another mixed animal practice in York, PA. She specializes in internal medicine and farm animal ambulatory work. Dr. McKissick loves working with multiple species of animals every day and enjoys helping pets live their happiest lives with their families.
Dr. McKissick enjoys being active outside of the hospital too, spending her free time traveling, hiking, wine tasting and jogging. She has two pets at home - a Greyhound named Autumn and a cat named Nittany.

Dr. Karen Miller
