Dr. Mike Delliere
Dr. Rachel Hannum
Dr. Rachel completed her undergraduate studies at Georgetown University before earning her Doctor of Veterinary Medicine (DVM) from the Virginia-Maryland College of Veterinary Medicine in 2004. Bringing a well-rounded wealth of knowledge to the clinic, her professional background spans general practice, fast-paced emergency medicine, and shelter medicine. This diverse experience allows her to handle complex cases with ease, and she has developed a strong special interest in veterinary surgery and dermatology.
At home, Dr. Hannum lives the animal lover’s dream, managing a busy household that includes five dogs, two cats, and a horse. Outside of the clinic, you can almost always find her outdoors—whether she is horseback riding or hiking local paths with her dogs.
