Veterinarian Overview

Dr. Jim was born in Randolph County and grew up on a dairy and swine farm. He went to Purdue to be a vo-ag teacher and ended up teaching biology.While teaching biology, Jim was inthralled by the interaction of all the body systems and wanted to learn more of how God had created the human body. He quit teaching and went to work for U.S. Steel at their Gary Works. After several applications to Purdue, he was finally accepted into veterinary school but was in a quandary about leaving his general foreman's job and taking on a large debt to go back to school. That was the best career decision because he loves being a veterinarian. Along the journey he served in the U.S. Army Reserves for 28 years, was activated for Desert Storm and retired in 1996 as a LTC. He was commander of an airborne company, a chemical officer, and intelligence officer.He loves to joke around and talk to his clients, many of whom have turned out to be friends. One of his favorite activities at the clinic is testing students on the gum ball machine to determine if the have been "good or bad".He was the president of the Dunkirk Kiwanis Club for 19 years. Now he continues as a member and enjoys all the projects they do for Riley Children's Hospital and local charities. He has also served on the Jay County Board of Health for 20 years (3 years as chairman). He is past president of the Northeast Indiana Veterinary Medical Association.He is past retirement age and only works eight months of the year, spending four months in Florida playing volleyball! It is hard work, but hey, somebody has to do it!See Dr. Teresa's bio for more information on Dr. Jim.
