Dr. Taylor
Adrienne Taylor, DVM

Chief of Staff

Adrienne has been fascinated with animals ever since she was a small child. Her first pet was a cat named Kitty, who only helped fuel her passion to work with animals as an adult. Dr. Taylor got her undergraduate degree in Animal Science with a Minor in Biology at the University of Tennessee – Knoxville. She attended vet school at the University of Tennessee College of Veterinary Medicine and graduated in 2017. Adrienne has worked in the vet field since she was in high school, starting out as a kennel assistant. Throughout her years in the field, she learned to appreciate not only the medical side but the strong connection between animals and their humans. The human-animal bond is something that fuels Dr. Taylor and her work. Dr. Taylor has special interests in preventative medicine, dermatology, ophthalmology, and neurology, as well as maintaining quality of life.

Outside of the office, Adrienne enjoys reading, hiking, art, her saltwater aquarium, and spending time with her family and animals. She lives with her husband, her three dogs, Huff, Pippa, and Athena, her cat Bindi, a guinea pig, and a few fish, fresh and saltwater varieties.

Cassi Naden
Practice Manager

My love for animals and their care started when I was very young, and my father was going through veterinary school. I have always had animals, and couldn’t imagine a day without them. I showed horses when I was younger. I have trained dogs, worked in a humane society, and veterinary specialty and ER. Aside from pets, education is one of my highest passions. I have received an Associate’s in Business Administration, Bachelor’s in Psychology, Bachelor’s in Business Administration, a Master’s in Industrial and Organizational Psychology, and recently completed my Master’s in Business Administration (MBA). Growing up around the veterinary field was like a second home. I have always had a passion for animals, their care, client education, and all aspects of the veterinary field. Aside from doing coursework, I enjoy spending time with my dogs: Australian Cattle Dog, Piper, Blue Pitbull, a Rottweiler named Hauser, and a Corgiweiler named Dutton (AKA Potato). I enjoy hiking with my dogs and involving them in advanced training.

Judy Goodwin
Receptionist & Social Media Coordinator

Judy has been a part of the Oaklandon family for more than ten years, playing a key role as both a receptionist and as an assistant. She discovered, after thirty years in a different field, that animals are her passion and she needed to follow her dream in veterinary care. Outside of work, Judy enjoys photography, hiking out in nature, and spending quality time with her family. She has been happily married to her best friend, Paul, for more than 40 years and the two of them share four furry children together: Jackson, Strut, Mozzie, and Pearl – all of the cat variety.

Bonnie B.
Customer Service Representative

I never had my own children so my dogs and cats are my kiddos. I have 2 golden retrievers named Ralphie and Jessie. I also have 2 cats named Dinsdale and Sterling Archer. After high school, I knew I wanted to work in the veterinary industry so I worked with Dr. Summerlin in Pensacola, FL for 15 years. I love all things Disney, so I go on cruises and to Disney World. I also like to spend time with my husband Greg and visit family. I am looking forward to getting to know Indianapolis and Indiana in general. I love to go to baseball, hockey, and basketball games, and go to festivals. I love the weather here in Indianapolis. I am so excited to get to meet all of your fur babies.

Nicole Z.
Registered Veterinary Technician

I have been an animal lover for as far back as I can remember. We had a family dog and an outdoor cat at home and my grandfather had horses, dogs, and barn cats. I have associate degrees in administration, veterinary technician, and a bachelor’s in criminal justice. After my 20-year career in the military, I worked as a family case manager. The stress of being a family case manager became too much so I decided to pursue being a veterinary technician. I was blessed to be financially able to resign from my position and attend veterinary technician school full-time. I enjoy learning about genealogy, museums, music, gardening, true crime TV, reading, dining out, and spending time with friends and family. I have 6 dogs (2 long hair Daschunds and 4 American Pit Bull Terriers). I also have 2 cats (a Siamese and a tortie).
