Dr. Betsy graduated from Lincoln High School of Cambridge, IN, in 1983 and attended Purdue University undergraduate school from 1983-1986. She was then accepted into the Purdue University School of Veterinary Medicine in 1986 and graduated with a doctorate of Veterinary Medicine in May 1990. Her and Dr Neil have three children, Ryan, Alison, and Megan.

         Drs. Betsy & Neil met in undergraduate school in chemistry class. They continued to occasionally "run into" each other at meetings and campus events/tests. By chance, they ended up in the same veterinary class where their relationship developed over the years. They were married in May of 1993, then purchased White Veterinary Hospital in October of 1993. They continue to greatly enjoy managing and working together. Dr Betsy has a more managerial role for the practice, and spends a lot of her time on the sheep farm and acting as the leader for the Elkhart County 4-H Lamb Club.
