Amy Fraze, DVM

I graduated from the University of Tennessee in 2004 and was a non-traditional student having started college at the age of 41. I did emergency work in Tennessee for 10 years and also worked at a day practice. I began at Banfield in December of 2017 as a doctor at the Point Loma location. I came back to California to practice as my children and grandchildren love the San Diego area and I wanted to be closer to them. Starting with Banfield, I had a great mentor, and fell in love with the way Banfield practices medicine. Dr. O’Donnell, who is now our Area Chief of Staff, mentored me as I established myself in Point Loma. Once settled, I worked as a relief doctor at other Banfield locations around San Diego as well as working full-time at Point Loma and got acquainted with many other Banfield doctors and associates. I have continued working at Point Loma full time and am now the Lead Doctor here. We have an incredible client base who I love and have built lasting relationships with over the 4 years and truly love our Point Loma team. When I am outside of work, I love spending time with my grandchildren, going to the movies or the beach. My grandson and I are avid video gamers and share a love of all action movies including Star Wars and all the Marvel movies. I am a backyard bird enthusiast and have many hummingbird, finch and songbird feeders and love to watch them flourish. I love doing paint by numbers painting and diamond drill painting. By now everyone on the Point Loma team has pictures I’ve made for their unique interests.
