After a year spent practicing in southern Indiana, he returned back home to McMinnville and opened Town & Country Animal Hospital in 1984.

In his spare time, he enjoys spending time with family, playing the guitar, and falling out of kayaks in the Collins River. He writes and records music, which you can hear here: https://www.reverbnation.com/genemaxwell

GREAT! GREAT! GREAT! Truly amazing people. My dog is getting older and is quite fussy and a bit snappy. The entire staff handled him with care and compassion. Please do not hesitate to take your "baby" there. Highly recommend!!
