Meet the Oncology Team
Dr. Amanda Fulmer
Amanda is an Arkansas native who received her Bachelor of Science in Animal Science from the University of Arkansas. She then obtained her Doctor of Veterinary Medicine degree from Louisiana State University School of Veterinary Medicine. After completing an internship in Small Animal Medicine and Surgery at the North Carolina State University College of Veterinary Medicine, she returned to LSU to complete a three-year Medical Oncology residency and became board certified in 2008. She practiced Oncology in northern Virginia before joining VEC as Richmond's first veterinary oncologist. Her special interests include pain management in cancer patients, histiocytic neoplasia, and palliative treatment for end-stage patients. In her spare time, Amanda enjoys reading, fishing, and spending time with her family (both human and animal). Dr. Fulmer integrates all aspects of cancer treatment including surgery, chemotherapy, radiation therapy and alternative therapies.
Charlene Ferrell
Oncology Assistant
Charlene has worked at the VESC for 2 years, with the last year being in oncology. She loves working with oncology patients because "we are providing a service that allows owners to have more quality time with their pets who have been diagnosed with cancer. What we do is very bittersweet, but I enjoy being a part of a team who truly cares about and is fully dedicated to the well being and quality of life for our patients." Charlene graduated with a B.A. from VCU in 2008 and is currently attending school part time to fulfill pre-requisite requirements to apply to veterinary school. In her free time, she enjoys music, experiencing new places, and just hanging out with her boyfriend, Matt, and their two "children", Pacey and Sidney.
