Dr. Emily Green is a DVM and Medical Director at White Oak Veterinary Clinic. Dr. Green earned her Doctor of Veterinary Medicine from Virginia-Maryland College of Veterinary Medicine in 2021. Her areas of professional interest include mixed animal practice, dermatology, internal medicine, soft tissue surgery, and end-of-life (hospice) care.
Dr. Green started working in the veterinary field in 2012, and was inspired by her time volunteering at community health clinics (human) in her hometown, where she discovered her interest in medicine. This led her to then volunteer at her local animal shelter to train and rehabilitate abandoned and abused animals, where she discovered her real passion was animal medicine. Dr. Green believes the best part of working in veterinary medicine is, “Being a part of fostering the incredible bond that people and our four-legged companions share, and keeping our fuzzy/scaled/ feathered friends healthy for a long life with their families.”
Originally from the town of Westminster outside of Baltimore, MD, Dr. Green and her husband recently moved to Belle Vernon, PA. Their family intends on growing soon with the plan to become foster parents, but for now they keep themselves busy with their two dogs named Kasa and Willow and their six cats named Buggs, Cherry Blossom, Gizmo, Dumpling, Texas, and Zim! Dr. Green loves to support her local community, and likes to get as involved as she can with pet over-population issues by volunteering with local TNR programs. When she is not at work or volunteering, she also loves to garden and bake.

The White Oak team remembers Dr. Fleck, who served as Medical Director for several years until his passing in May 2019. Dr. Fleck's calm, thoughtful, and caring nature is irreplaceable, and we feel lucky to have experienced it and learned from it, along with the example he set for going above and beyond for all of the pets that he treated throughout the years.
Dr. Fleck received his Bachelor's Degree in Biology from Indiana University of Pennsylvania and his Doctorate of Veterinary Medicine in 1994 from Ohio State University. Originally from Altoona, Pennsylvania, Dr. Fleck served clients and pets at White Oak Veterinary Clinic for over 11 years. His professional interests included internal medicine, complex surgeries, endoscopy, and more, and Dr. Fleck was recognized by all pet parents for his calming demeanor and attentive approach to medicine. Outside of the hospital, Dr. Fleck was dedicated to his family, rescued pets, and the great outdoors. His contributions to our hospital family and all those who knew him will not be forgotten.
Dr. Maddelene Herr is excited to be joining White Oak Veterinary Clinic! Originally born and raised in Lancaster, Pennsylvania, she earned her Bachelor's degree in Molecular Biology from Millersville University. She then went on to veterinary school at Ross University and completed her clinical studies at Tufts University in Massachusetts. After 10 years of many adventures living in New Hampshire, including meeting her husband, they decided Pittsburgh, PA would be their new home.
Dr. Herr spent the first part of her career at a busy 24/7 small animal emergency hospital in New Hampshire, where she gained experience managing challenging medicine cases. She then moved on to general practice and preferred a setting where she could get to know her patients and clients individually and work with their own unique needs.
At home, Dr. Herr enjoys reading, baking, gardening, and getting bossed around by her small, yet mouthy, cat. She and her husband love traveling and are always looking for a new food adventure!
