Dr. John Tomlinson

DVM

Dr. John Tomlinson, Jr. is a second generation veterinarian that was born and raised in this practice, which was started by his parents in 1965. Dr. Tomlinson knew at a very early age he was going to become a veterinarian, and continue the operation of the family veterinary clinic.
Dr. Tomlinson attended Potomac State College, West Virginia University, and in 1998 received his veterinary degree at Ohio State University, where he graduated with multiple awards in areas of medicine, surgery, ophthalmology, and dermatology.
Dr. Tomlinson traveled to California in 1999, completing a preceptorship at The University of California Davis, and returned to Ohio in 1999 to a 9 veterinarian practice. He came back to Fairlea to practice with Dr. Tomlinson, Sr. in 2002 prior to purchasing the family practice.
Dr. Tomlinson is married to Susie Taylor Tomlinson and they have three children, Levi, Kate, and Taylor. The Tomlinson family are active in the community, serving in church and through 4-H leadership. They spend a great deal of their time working their farm, Stone Meadow, which is home to cattle, sheep, chickens, and several dogs and cats. Dr. Tomlinson’s biggest investment is in parenting, investing in the people his children will become. The Tomlinson girls have a big interest in veterinary medicine and have been involved in our practice since they were little. They will hopefully be the third generation of veterinarians in the Tomlinson family.
