Meet Our Team

Dr. Ashley Isbell Goforth, DVM

My dream of becoming a veterinarian began at a very young age when a fellow student’s dad came to career day to discuss his life as a veterinarian. Ever since that day, my life revolved around completing everything needed to get into the University of Georgia, College of Veterinary Medicine and becoming a successful veterinarian. Because of how the one veterinarian influenced my life, I pay it forward by inspiring elementary school children to enter into the veterinary profession.

Dr. Amanda MacDonald, DVM

I am originally from Boston, Massachusetts. In my studies to become a vet, I attended the University of New England in Maine to obtain a Bachelor’s degree in Animal Behavior. I, then, attended St. George’s University School of Veterinary Medicine in Grenada, West Indies. Living in the Caribbean made me realize my love of traveling. This influenced my decision to attend The Royal Veterinary College in London, England, for my clinical year, as well as an externship in conservation/wildlife medicine in South Africa.

My special interests in veterinary medicine include: large animal surgery and medicine, ultrasonography, radiology, small animal surgery, and infectious diseases. My hobbies include hiking, running, and cheering on the Boston Bruins! I am excited to begin working at York Vet and have moved to South Carolina with my island cat, Furiosa, whom I adopted from my Caribbean vet school.
