Donna Warren, D.V.M.
Dr. Warren was born and raised in Charlotte as the middle of three girls. Her parents were from the Boston area which explains the lack of an accent. Her family still lives nearby for the most part. She has a younger sister who is an engineer in Mooresville and her father and stepmother live in Davidson. Her father is often seen helping out around the clinic. Donna has an older sister in finance who works in Chicago.
Donna attended South Mecklenburg High School and graduated with a B.S. in Animal Science from N.C. State University. She graduated from NC State Veterinary School and has the same two children as Dr. Hemstreet. She also includes their Doberman Sarah as one of the children but has no claim on the cat Robbie.
Donna is an avid reader and enjoys camping and traveling. Her single private passion is gourmet cooking and takes every opportunity to create something new and exotic in the kitchen.
