Dr. Fitzgerald grew up in Minneapolis, Minnesota and graduated Phi Beta Kappa from the University of Minnesota. She attended the University of Minnesota College of Veterinary Medicine and graduated in 1986. She fell in love with Long Island during a summer Veterinary internship and decided to make Long Island her home. She worked in private general practice and emergency hospitals prior to opening Fitzgerald Veterinary in Lake Grove in 1998. She breeds and exhibits top nationally ranked dogs in Conformation, Obedience and Agility. She is the owner and trainer of two Triple Champion Doberman pinschers. Currently, she is competing with Heaven, a Doberman pinscher and Roger, a Miniature pinscher. Dr. Fitzgerald uses her love for animals as an inspiration to create her international renowned quilts. Dr. Fitzgerald has many years of experience working with animals and the people who they call their family. Her goal is to keep animals healthy with the best care possible and guide the owners to make informed decisions regarding the care of their pet.

ALYSSA

Caring for animals has been a passion of mine ever since I was young. Aside from working at Fitzgerald Veterinary I am also involved in animal rescue. This is how I adopted my 3 fur babies Nova, Ducati and Maverick. They are my world! I have also helped rescue other dogs, cats, possums, and roosters. I am so happy to have a job where I can help animals on a daily basis.


SHANNON

I graduated from Wells College in May of 2020 with a Bachelor’s in Health Science. I enjoy taking my dogs to the beach and spending time with all my pets at home. I have a passion for all animals but especially wildlife. Currently I am working on getting my wildlife rehabilitation licenses. I would like to work closely with wildlife and conservation in the future.
