Our Doctors
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.

I’m a good ole Clover girl, graduating from Clover High School almost 20 years ago. I then majored in Animal Science/Pre-Vet at Clemson University (Go Tigers!) graduating in Dec 2006. I graduated from the University of Georgia with a DVM in 2011 (Go Dawgs!). My husband is a Georgia fan, so when Clemson plays Georgia, it is a house divided!
My husband and I have 4 dogs (a Havanese, a Great Dane/Mastiff, a Labrador, and a Border Collie mix), 1 cat, and 3 horses, not to mention the 3 cats and bearded dragon at the office. Our small dog, Spud, can be seen here frequently! We have an adorable 5-year-old daughter, happy 3-year-old son, and infant son!
Personally, I am a HUGE college football fan! I love going on long trail rides, camping, kayaking, four-wheeling, boat riding, the beach, and generally just being outside. I also love seeing clients’ exotic pets and wildlife. My favorite patients are raccoons and bobcats! I can treat just about anything. My mission is to provide the community with friendly affordable services, quality individualized lifelong care for all pets, and understandable education on care, prevention, and treatment options.

Amanda
Practice Manager
Hi, I’m Amanda, the Practice Manager here at York Vet. I joined the YV team in 2018 as a Veterinary Technician, bringing with me a lifelong passion for animal care. I earned my Associate’s Degree in Health Science from York Technical College in 2006, and over the years, I’ve been fortunate to expand my experience—especially with exotic animals, which has become one of my favorite aspects of the field.
I’m committed to ongoing growth and education, and I actively participate in continuing education programs. I’m also a proud member of the Veterinary Hospital Management Association (VHMA) and the Vertical Vet Platinum Management Program.
Outside of work, I’ve been happily married to my husband, Mike, for 24 years. We have two wonderful adult children, Emily and Eli, and a house full of furry companions—including Jolene, my Cane Corso, Tony, my French Bulldog along with our two cats: Delmar & Pete. In my free time, I love hiking, camping, kayaking, and exploring new places through travel.
