Dr. Perry Parks is a native of Asheboro, NC who at the age of six knew he wanted to become a veterinarian. Throughout childhood he was exposed to farm animals along with the family dogs and cats upon which his desire only strengthened. His undergraduate pre-veterinary studies were at NC State University. His career pursuit was completed upon graduation from the University of Georgia College of Veterinary Medicine in June 1979.

Dr. Parks began his career at a local well established mixed animal practice in Asheboro. Not only did this allow development in the ever growing and advancing small animal field of veterinary medicine but for him, the large animal field also. After 8.5 years he entered a mobile large animal practice until May of 2017 when he returned to small animal practice by joining Asheboro Animal Hospital. He continues to maintain his large animal practice on a limited and smaller scale. Dr. Parks has found his areas of interest to have remained unchanged across the two fields. Those areas are reproduction, nutrition, diagnostic imaging, and critical care.
A portion of his personal free time is devoted to advancing his knowledge of veterinary medicine each day but not to lessen his time shared and enjoyed with his wife. A few on the top of the list being sailing, coastal adventures, cooking and not to forget, Georgia Dawg Football!Dr. Kristen Livengood
Dr. Kristen Livengood completed her Bachelor of Science in Biology at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in 2015 and her Doctorate of Veterinary Medicine at North Carolina State University in 2019. After graduating from veterinary school, she treated both large and small animals at a mixed animal veterinary clinic in Shelby, NC, for 4 years. Dr. Livengood's veterinary interests include soft tissue surgery, dermatology, geriatric medicine, and diagnostic imaging.

A native of Thomasville, she moved back to the area to be closer to her family in 2022. When she is not at work, you are most likely to find Dr. Livengood on horseback or spending summer days on the boat or in the garden. Dr. Livengood and her husband are very active in their church and help to lead the middle and high school student ministry. In addition to their two Quarter Horses, "Lemon" and "Drifter," they have two Labrador retrievers, two cats, four chickens, and an entertaining rooster named "Meathead."

Happy Pet Parents
We have been going here for many years with our babies. The staff is friendly and Dr. Yow is the reason we come here! She is amazing!
Dr. Yow was truly God sent. Our cat had not eaten in 5 days and was making an unusual hacking noise. She examined him, but he had no signs of sickness (no fever or discharge). She was very thorough and wanted to know his complete history. After Dr. Yow gave me the treatment plan, she said let's do these tests first to rule out certain diseases. They came back negative, so I agreed to her treatment plan. Because I didn't want to spend money on a blood panel and his lungs were causing the problem (x-rays were neg.), Dr. Yow suggested he may have lung worms which is uncommon. All the fluids, Vit. B shot, antibiotics, and worm med helped him recover. We are so thankful she thought outside the box just in case, because his lungs have cleared up in less than four days and he is eating well. Thank you so much Dr. Yow, Brave Heart is less than 2 years old and the best cat ever!
Dr. Parks is awesome. The up front staff is friendly and helpful.
Great, friendly staff. Dr Parks was very thorough and so sweet with my nervous Luna.
Love Dr Dinsmore. He takes time to explain everything he does and is very thorough.
I've been taking our pets here for many years and our pets feel comfortable here and we do as well. Prices are great. The staff is very friendly and knowledgeable. I wouldn't go anywhere else!
I absolutely love the attention my pets receive at Asheboro Animal Hospital. I like and appreciate every vet there for the service they have provided my animals over the years. The front desk staff and vet techs are phenomenal as well!
We moved to the area recently and brought our dog in for treatment. The staff was incredibly kind and very competent. We will be using them as our primary vet from now on.
Asheboro Animal Hospital is the best veterinary practice I have ever worked with. The doctors are knowledgeable and supportive. They are gentle with my animals and take time to educate me about my pets' needs. They problem solve with me so that I can make the right choices that will work for my pets and family. The rest of the staff is also wonderful. Every single staff member is friendly, helpful, and kind to my pets. I highly recommend them.
