These days a veterinary visit can mean a lot of things for a pet parent and their family member. It can cause fear, frustration, confusion, or even mistrust.

Our Staff
Justin Barrett
RVT
Justin has been with Advanced Care since July of 2015. When he was a small child, like many of us, he had to endure the loss of one of his family pets. Since that day Justin has been passionate about helping animals and ensuring they are well taken care of. Justin has a special interest in sports medicine, OFA hips and elbows and dental procedures and extractions.
Justin and his wife, Ashleigh, have three dogs, Woodrow, Spice, and Ike. Spice is the hardest working dog they have. Ike is their “wonder boy” because sometimes you wonder what he is doing and other times you are in wonderment of him. Lastly, Woodrow is what they like to call their terror. He is their ornery one.
Justin spends his weekends going to church, hunting, working dogs, or golfing. He also likes watching marvel movies and working with his hands out on the farm.
Abbi Keeling
Veterinary Assistant
Abbi has been an animal lover from the start. As a child she stayed in trouble for bringing various critters in the house as “pets” and was always begging to bring home those that needed a home. From reptiles to pocket pets, she had it all. That admiration for animals has only grown since then, fueling her decision to seek a career in the pet industry. Abbi was a dog trainer for Petco for a year before coming to Advanced Care and while she enjoyed it, she enjoys the science and fundamentals found in vet med more than she ever imagined.
Abbi’s home life is almost as pet-involved as her job, she currently shares her and her boyfriend’s home with five dogs of their own, one of which is a Blue Tick Coonhound they have hopes to be a grand champion one day. Aside from the canine companions, they have two horses and a small herd of miniature pigs. While they tend to take up most of her spare time, Abbi also enjoys getting outdoors and hiking, hunting, and fishing.
Abbi has lived in Sapulpa her entire life and graduated from Sapulpa High School in 2016. One of her favorite things about working at ACVH is getting to provide affordable, yet exceptional vet care to her hometown and help spread awareness about proper pet care.
