Dr. Emery Engers
Medical Director

A life-long Michigan resident, Dr. Engers grew up on a small horse farm outside of Ann Arbor, often accompanying her father, an equine veterinarian, on farm calls. She earned her BA in Chemistry from Kalamazoo College in 2003 and her DVM from Michigan State University in 2007. Dr. Engers spent the next 10 years in companion animal practice advancing her clinical skills and developing special interests in dentistry, soft tissue surgery, dermatology, and emergency medicine. In 2017, Dr. Engers returned to her alma mater and joined the MSU College of Veterinary Medicine faculty, where she led the Small Animal Primary Care Service and instructed senior veterinary students in general medicine, surgery, and dentistry. Dr. Engers then went on to serve as the Chief Medical Officer for a regional hospital group, supporting and advancing the medical quality of 22+ hospitals and over 50 veterinarians.

Dr. Engers currently resides in South Lyon with her two-year-old daughter and can typically be found in the middle of some DIY home improvement project. She also enjoys showing horses, gardening, camping, and backpacking, and loves to travel.

Pam
Practice Manager

I started at Parkway in September of 1992.  If I am not down stairs helping out you can find me upstairs in the office.  My main job is to keep Parkway on it’s toes and keep up with the inventory   I have had Springer Spaniels my whole life and currently I have 3 very active young males.  I have a crazy cat, an asthmatic Quarter horse, and a whole lot of stray ducks and one Mother Goose.  I couldn’t be happier with my crew here and at home.

Olivia
Clinic Coordinator

Hi, I’m Olivia, you probably hear my voice on the other end of the phone when you call.  I was born and raised in Livonia and my family has been bringing our dogs to Parkway since the 80s, with the most recent addition being my one-year-old Weimaraner, Faolan. I have always been a dog person so starting here at Parkway in July of 2020 was one of the easiest decisions I have ever made; I previously worked in a hospital and I prefer the patients that we see here. I’m currently finishing a degree in health science at Central Michigan University and plan to stay in the veterinary field as long as I can. I look forward to meeting you and your fur babies!

Alison
LVT

Hi, my name is Alison and I have been a Licensed Veterinary Technician since 2016 and at Parkway since 2017. I received my license from Wayne County Community College. At home, I have three of the coolest cats, Eggroll, a pirate kitty (three-legged) named Darkness, and an adorable little troublemaker named Bagheera. I’ve always been fond of having animals in my life, and being able to spend my days with them makes this career really rewarding. One of my favorite parts of my job is doing dentals, I love scraping years of crud off of your pet’s teeth. If I’m not at work, you can catch me hanging with my kitties, exploring the Renaissance Festival, or curled up with Darkness on my lap, reading a good book.

Gigi
Receptionist

Hi there! My name is Gigi. I am a mother of four, one human, two dogs, and a giant cat. My passions are my family, horses, gardening, and history. I am a Navy Veteran but my true calling is animals. As I am new to the industry, I will be welcoming you and your family members at the front desk, but my goal will be to become a Certified Veterinary Technician with Parkway. I am very excited to be here, and I look forward to meeting you and your furry family.

Jen
Receptionist

Hi! My name is Jen and I have been in the Veterinary Medical field since 2020. I recently joined Parkway Vet Clinic in January of 2024. You can find me up front, greeting our friends both furry and human. I have four furry family members of my own and one human child as well. When I am not loving your pets I like to read and spend time with my family, I am looking forward to meeting you and your pets.
