Torri
RVT
Hi, my name is Torri. I started off as an assistant in 2016 and worked my way into the Veterinary Technician role. In 2023 I became a Registered Veterinary Technician. I have always been passionate about animals and they have always been a huge part of my life. I have several of my own animals including 3 dogs, 2 cats, 2 horses, a bird, a turtle, chickens, and ducks.
In my spare time I enjoy horseback riding, crafting, camping and being with my husband and son.
Mackenzie
Hello, my name is Mackenzie. I have been a registered vet tech for almost 4 years now. I graduated from Front Range Community College with my A.A.S in Veterinary Technology in May of 2020. I’ve always had a passion for caring and advocating for animals. My husband and I have three wonderful dogs of our own. In my spare time, I spend most of it coaching high school cheerleading, but I also enjoy reading, hiking, and traveling the world. I just recently joined the Full Circle family and am so excited to be here! I look forward to meeting all the wonderful clients and their cute fur babies.
Emily
Nurse
Emily Fosdick Early is a Veterinary Nurse/Dr. Early’s (favorite) daughter. She is a student at CSU who plans to major in Biochemistry before heading off to Law School. Outside of work, she enjoys snowboarding, wakeboarding, and playing with her golden retrievers, Ares and Percy.
Mayela
Nurse
Hello there! My name is Mayela. I am originally from Texas but moved here around 12 years ago. I grew up on a little farm with horses, llamas, cows, chickens, goats, and a miniature donkey! I have three fur babies at home named Luna, Winnie, and Daisy. I just graduated with a Bachelor’s in Zoology at CSU. I will be pursuing a Master’s in Biomedical Science in the fall, and I hope to one day pursue a career as a veterinarian. I’m so excited to meet you and your pets!
Lexie
Nurse/Reception
Hi I’m Lexie!
I Joined the Full Circle team in May of 2024 while I was still a student at CSU majoring in Zoology. I graduated in December of 2024 and am hoping to return to complete a master’s program before hopefully starting vet school. I have wanted to be a veterinarian since I was little and working with animals has always been a major passion of mine. Growing up I was always surrounded by dogs and cats who had to put up with me playing vet where I pretended to listen to their heart, give them vaccines, and do overall exams. (I am lucky that my family always had friendly and tolerant pets).
I am originally from the Bay Area in California but moved to Fort Collins in August of 2020 to attend CSU. I have since fallen in love with Colorado and don’t plan on leaving anytime soon. In August of 2023 I started raising a yellow lab named Ivan who came into work with me and loved hanging out with the staff and making friends with clients and their pets. He returned to Oregon in September of 2024 to begin his formal training to become a seeing eye dog and is doing really well! Now, I have an Australian shepherd puppy named Mazie who is full of energy and very spunky. She prefers to stay home and loves to learn tricks, go on adventures, and complete puzzles for snacks.
Outside of work I enjoy exploring different parts of Colorado, camping with friends and our dogs, going to Horsetooth reservoir to paddleboard, and pick up too many different art hobbies that I eventually forget about and end up with half completed projects (that probably won’t be completed even if I say I’m going to).
I look forward to meeting everyone and working with your fur babies!

Dr. Merideth Early
DVM/Owner
I can proudly say that I am a Colorado and Weld County native. I was born in Greeley but grew up in Nunn, where I lived for my entire childhood. Growing up, my family enjoyed camping, rafting, and exploring all parts of Colorado. There is very little of the state I haven’t been to at least once. In 2013 my family and I moved to Johnstown, and it has been a wonderful decision.
As far as my journey to becoming a veterinarian, I was pretty certain I would be a doctor when I grew up, but I took some time off between high school and college. During that time, I started working in a vet clinic in Evans and discovered that I have a passion for veterinary medicine. I love that I can be doing surgery one day and the next seeing a myriad of pets, allowing me to learn something new almost every day. I’m a puzzle lover, and this career is a perfect fit for that passion as well.
Once I decided to be a vet, I returned to school and obtained my Bachelor of Science in Microbiology. This re-awakened a passion I had as a child as well. I love using a microscope, and yep, I’ll say it, I love poop! It can tell us so much about what is going on with a pet. I also worked in an immunology lab which means I have a good understanding of vaccinations and immune responses.
I finished my schooling at CSU College of Veterinary Medicine and Biomedical Science, obtaining my Doctor of Veterinary Medicine degree in 2011. Since then, I have been practicing in Weld County, where I enjoy seeing people and pets I’ve known for a long time as well as many, many new faces. I achieved my long-time dream of owning my own clinic in October of 2023- celebrating my opening day on my birthday. Most important of all is that I love connecting with people and their pets. I believe in collaborative care and helping you find the care that works best for you and your furry family member’s needs.
Dr. Malinda Dosch
DVM
I have lived in Colorado since 1978 and was, before this, a resident of New Jersey. I graduated from veterinary school in 2003 from Colorado Status University. Prior to going back to school for an advanced degree, I was a medical transcriptionist for nearly ten years.
I have been practicing veterinary medicine in Weld County since I graduated. I was at All Pet Animal Clinic in Evans, CO, right out of school for about nine years. Then I moved to Pawz Veterinary Hospital in Firestone, CO, for about five years. Most recently, I was at Sheep Draw Veterinary Hospital for about four years. I have now moved to Full Circle Veterinary Care for a new adventure in small-town veterinary practice.
I see dogs and cats only, but I love all my patients—especially those smaller patients who need extra love. I am really enjoying my experience so far in Johnstown and love our clientele.
I have two grown children that live locally but don’t visit their mom often enough. I love living in Colorado, driving in snow and mud, and I am an avid reader. I have a huge library of already-read books in my house, as well as multiple stacks of books that I need to read. I have a collection of TY beanie babies. I am glad to be working in a small family clinic and would be happy to help you with any veterinary needs.
