Dr. Scott Gibson - The Veterinarian of Lake Oconee

This is a conversation with long time Lake Oconee Veterinarian, Dr. Scott Gibson, his education, career and what gave him a love of animals and the drive to care for them. Dr. Scott Gibson was born in a small town near the coast of North Carolina, but his family moved often with his dad being a Naval nuclear engineer on submarines, then a nuclear plant engineer after retiring from the Navy. Dr. Scott did spend the majority of his youth growing up in Roswell, GA, near Atlanta. Attending undergraduate school at the University of NC, then veterinary school at the University of Georgia, Dr. Gibson did post graduate work in Montana, before moving back to Georgia to work at an animal hospital in Savannah, GA while enjoying surfing in his spare time! He moved to the Lake area in 2006, becoming a partner in a new veterinary hospital, before starting his current practice, The Veterinarian at Lake Oconee, a beautiful, modern facility on Old Phoenix Road just off Highway 44. He has a great bedside manner with his patients (and their "parents") and strongly believes in preventive veterinary practice. He is very thorough with his patients, looking to solve small problems before they become big problems. Dr. Gibson is married to Vonda and they attend Lake Point Community Church.
